Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2005066050A1] The invention relates to a method and a device for the contactless detection of flat objects, especially in the form of sheets, such as paper, films, sheet metal, labels, splices, stub cards, tear strips, and similar flat materials or packagings. Said method and devices require, e.g. in the printing industry, a reliable and precise identification of single sheets, missing sheets or multiple sheets, special double sheets, flat objects and labels. To this end, the invention provides a very flexible solution that can be applied to a very large spread or mass per unit area range, whereby the evaluation device arranged downstream from the sensor device, especially the receiver, receives at least one correction characteristic curve, by which means the characteristic curve of the input voltage of the measuring signal in the receiver is reproduced as a target characteristic curve according to the spread or the mass per unit area of the flat objects, in such a way that a linear or approximately linear dependence or a characteristic curve close to the ideal characteristic curve for identifying the single sheet is achieved as a target characteristic curve.
