The invention relates to a method of determining the elongation of segments of a chain during operation, comprising the following steps: Performing a first detection to determine a position of a first chain component and detecting a first measurement value, performing a second detection to determine a position of a second chain component and detecting a second measurement value, and determining the distance L between the first and the second chain component, wherein the first detection and the second detection are performed simultaneously.

Chain sensor device and method for determining wear

The invention relates to a method for setting up two sensor systems for monitoring the state of wear of a chain, which method comprises the steps: first positioning of the first sensor system relative to a calibration object, first positioning of the second sensor system relative to the calibration object, carrying out a first signal detection using the first sensor system, carrying out a first signal detection using the second sensor system, wherein the first signal detection using the first sensor system takes place at the same time as the first signal detection of the second sensor system.

The invention relates to a chain elongation monitoring device having a first differential transformer, a second differential transformer, and a control for recording the measured values, wherein the second differential transformer is arranged at a fixed distance from the first differential transformer, and a method for operating the chain elongation monitoring device.
