Latest Patents
Scot Petitt holds a patent for a Non-intrusive, on-the-fly (OTF) temperature measurement and monitoring system. This invention provides an apparatus and method for measuring the temperature of a moving radiant object. A probe, such as a pyrometer, is positioned in an opening of a vacuum chamber adjacent to a radiation transparent window. The probe defines an optical path that intercepts the radiant object entering or exiting a processing chamber. As the radiant object moves through the optical path, it emits electromagnetic waves. These waves are collected by the probe and transmitted to a signal processing unit, where they are detected and converted into a temperature reading. The accumulated data can be used to generate a cooling curve that represents the thermal effects experienced by the radiant object. Extrapolation or correlation methods may be employed to extend the cooling curve to points in time before or after the data collected by the probe.
