Diameter measurement with iPEK, RICO or RIEZLER cameras

This measuring system consists of a PAN & TILT camera with two built-in lasers sources producing beams that are parallel to each other and symmetric to the view direction. Over the known vertical view angle (or field of view) you can calculate the distance of the camera to the laser dots. If you look perpendicular to the pipe surface and rotate the camera head 360° around the pipe axis a cross section profile of the pipe is going to be created.

Info

In case of working with an iPEK camera system the user will have to push the corresponding start button on the iPEK control unit. This is going to activate the laser dots, the camera head automatically rotates and the picture luminosity is reduced to 0%.

In case of working with camera systems from RICO or RIEZLER please contact the corresponding manufacturer for the required hardware control steps.

Measuring procedure

Make sure the camera is switched on and hit the button Parallel-Laser in the OSD-Panel to launch the measurement:

...

The button Save Picture allows the user to save the displayed result as a picture in the JPEG format.

Diameter measurement with RAUSCH cameras

Over the known vertical view angle (or field of view) you can calculate the distance of the camera to the laser dots. If you look perpendicular to the pipe surface and rotate the camera head 360° around the pipe axis a cross section profile of the pipe is going to be created.
