Bar angle measurement system

摘要

The present bar angle measurement (BAM) system is mounted on a bar bending apparatus which is well known to those in the bar bending industry. The BAM system comprises three main units, the light and CCD assembly unit, a mounting unit, and a control unit. The light and CCD assembly unit is mounted on the bar bending apparatus via the mounting unit and positioned directly over a turn table where the bar bending occurs. The light and the CCD assembly comprise CCIR monochrome camera with fluorescent lighting. The lighting provides the local luminance required for the camera to capture the image of the bent bar. The control unit controls the process flow of the BAM system.
