The invention relates to a method for contactlessly determining the temperature of a moving object having an unknown degree of emission, in particular a metal wire that is conveyed along its longitudinal axis, comprising the following steps: the object is guided through at least one radiation source emitting heat, the object being predominantly or completely surrounded by the at least one radiation source; at least one radiation detector is provided to carry out a spatially resolved heat radiation measurement in an area that has been passed by the object during its guidance through the radiation source; the temperature of the moving object is determined on the basis of the spatially resolved heat radiation measurement. The invention further relates to a corresponding device.
The invention relates to a method for determining the position of at least one edge of an object, in particular of a strand, comprising steps of: illuminating the object using light from at least one coherent light source, diffraction borders being generated on both geometric boundaries of the shadow formed by the object. In one embodiment, the intensity profiles are first differentiated according to the location. Each differentiated intensity profile can either be plotted on a quadratic position axis and compared to a periodic reference intensity profile, or be directly compared to a reference intensity profile that results from a periodic function. In a second embodiment, the intensity profiles are compared to a reference intensity profile that results from a periodic function, if this function has a period length with a substantially inversely linear dependency on the location, and if the function is integrated over the location.
The disclosure relates to a method for measuring the temperature of a strand-like material to be heated to a target temperature, including the steps: the strand-like material is guided in heat conducting contact about at least one disk, mounted so as to rotate, that is heated to a predefined temperature, and a difference is measured between the temperature of the strand-like material or a value characterizing the temperature of the strand-like material, before conveyance about the disk and after conveyance about the disk. The disclosure also relates to a corresponding device.
