  • Patent number: 11314651
    Abstract: Provided is a method for operating a measurement system including an evaluation module and several measuring elements. The evaluation module and the measuring elements are connected via a communication line. The method includes detecting measurement data via the several measuring elements. At least two of the measuring elements detect the measurement data at least partially at the same time. The method further includes: buffering the detected measurement data in the respective measuring element; and reading out the measurement data buffered in the measuring elements with the evaluation module via the communication line.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11167386
    Abstract: A device for the identification of a tool which is accommodated in a tool holder includes a read/write head configured to communicate with an RFID transponder. The read/write head extends above and/or below the tool holder over at least 70% of an overall diameter of the tool holder. The tool holder has a longitudinal axis and, on its side, a recess which is formed perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the tool holder and in which the RFID transponder is inserted such that the transfer curve of the RFID transponder runs upwards and/or downwards, as seen from the recess, in a direction of the longitudinal axis of the tool.
