Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method or classifying metal tubes in which the measuring of the eccentricity over the entire length of the tube is provided, and in which the classification occurs on the basis of the length of the tube portions which have eccentricity either higher or lower than one or more eccentricity thresholds.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A method for classifying a metal tube having a total length Ltot, wherein there are provided a detection system for detecting an eccentricity of a tube, adapted to measure the eccentricity of the tube along its entire total length Ltot, a relative movement being provided between the tube and the detection system, and a processor adapted to process data obtained from said detection system, in said method being defined: a first eccentricity threshold S 1 , a first reference len…
