3.5 Determining measurement results and outputting data
3.5.1 Recording of measured values and 3D modeling

• The calculation of measurement values begins as soon as one or more objects are
transported beneath 2D LiDAR sensor.
• The measuring points detected are cyclically transmitted to the SIM2000-2 Prime
controller.
• When the detected conveyor speed and the specific position of the object on the belt
are factored in, a spatial model of the object(s) is created.
3.5.2 Evaluating the 3D model in each operating mode
The calculated 3D model is evaluated in the SIM2000-2 Prime controller according to the
set operating mode.

• The 3D model maps the separately measured object.
• The SIM2000-2 Prime controller calculates the smallest enveloping cuboid for the
object and uses this cuboid to derive the dimensional values.
