Abstract
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for a measuring system for a cutting apparatus. The cutting apparatus includes a housing defining an operating cavity, with a cutting wheel arranged in the operating cavity. A measuring system is configured to measure a change in diameter of the cutting wheel, the measuring system including one or more marks corresponding to a size of the cutting wheel. In examples, the diameter changes from a first diameter to a second diameter during operation of the cutting wheel, both of which can be measured by the measuring system.
Claims20
A cutting apparatus comprising:
- a housing defining an operating cavity;
- a cutting wheel arranged in the operating cavity;
- and
- a measuring system configured to measure a change in diameter of the cutting wheel, the measuring system including one or more marks corresponding to a size of the cutting wheel.
A method for controlling a rotational velocity of a cutting device, comprising:
- measuring, by a linear measuring device, a first diameter of a cutting wheel of the cutting device;
- conducting a cutting operation using the cutting wheel;
- measuring, by the linear measuring device, a second diameter of the cutting wheel during or after the cutting operation;
- and
- adjusting, by a control system, one or more operational parameters of the cutting wheel based on a difference between the first and second diameter.
