  • Publication number: 20250035588
    Abstract: A method for operating an ultrasonic measuring device for measuring a property of a medium includes: an arrangement of at least two pair of ultrasonic transducers for emitting and receiving ultrasonic signals across a signal path through a fluid; a holding apparatus having a wall in contact with the medium and a flat wall section for holding the ultrasonic transducers; an electronic circuit configured to operate the ultrasonic transducers and to provide measured values of the property, wherein the ultrasonic transducers form Lamb oscillations in the respectively associated wall, wherein at least two pair of the at least two pair of ultrasonic transducers each excite and capture different modes of Lamb oscillations, wherein the different modes are excited in groups, wherein a time delay between temporally adjacent emissions of ultrasonic signals is shorter than a shortest propagation time of the ultrasonic signals between associated ultrasonic transducers.

  • Patent number: 11822321
    Abstract: A method evaluates a sample of measurement data from measuring multiple workpieces by at least one coordinate measuring machine. A system of statistical distributions describes a frequency of measurement data values. The distributions are distinguishable based on skewness and kurtosis. The method includes defining a set of statistical distributions that are able to describe a frequency of measurement data values in the entire value interval from the system of statistical distributions for a value interval of the measurement data, which is a specified value interval or a value interval of the measurement data actually arising in the sample. The method includes ascertaining the skewness and the kurtosis from the sample of measurement data corresponding to a first statistical distribution. The method includes checking, using the ascertained moment values, whether the defined set contains a statistical distribution that has the ascertained skewness and kurtosis, and producing a corresponding test result.

  • Patent number: 11609089
    Abstract: A method for evaluating measurement data from a measurement of a plurality of workpieces includes obtaining a set of measurement data. Each workpiece has an associated set of measurement data. The set of measurement data corresponds to measurement points of the workpieces. The set of measurement data has, for each measurement point of the workpieces, at least one measured coordinate and/or, for each measured coordinate, a divergence from a comparison coordinate. The method includes determining a measure of the correlation of the measured coordinates and/or of the divergences is determined for a plurality of the sets of measurement data, in each case in relation to a pair of measurement points that consists of two measurement points of the workpieces.
