  • Method and apparatus for measuring the thickness of a transparent object in an automatic production line
    Patent number: 9127932
    Abstract: An apparatus (100) and a method for measuring the thickness (s) for a wall (35) of a transparent object (30); the wall (35) comprises a transparent material (35a) arranged between a proximal interface (31), set between an environment (33) and the transparent material (35a), and a distal interface (32), set between said transparent material (35a) and the environment (33). The apparatus (100) comprises a source (1) of a starting light radiation (2) and a means for focusing it (10), in order to obtain an entering light radiation (5) directed towards the wall (35) that hits the proximal interface (31) of the wall (35) of the object and is in part reflected, in order to generate a first reflected radiation (6).
