MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202621027282 A) filed by Chavan Ved Arun; Walke Shravani Ajit; Gabale Ragini Ganagadhar; and Gavaraskar Rupali, Pune, Maharashtra, on March 9, for 'a laser-based real-time diameter monitoring and automatic control system for fibers, wires, and filaments.'
Inventor(s) include Chavan Ved Arun; Walke Shravani Ajit; Gabale Ragini Ganagadhar; and Gavaraskar Rupali.
The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a laser-based real-time diameter monitoring and automatic control system for cylindrical materials including fibers, wires, filaments, tubes, and optical fibers. The system employs a light source configured to project a beam across a defined measurement region and a photosensitive detector configured to detect variations in light intensity caused by partial obstruction of the beam by a passing material. The detected optical variation is converted into an electrical signal using a signal conditioning circuit comprising a transimpedance amplifier and filtering components. A processing unit digitizes the conditioned signal and computes the material diameter using calibration and digital filtering techniques. A closed-loop feedback mechanism compares the computed diameter with a predefined target value and drives an actuator mechanism to adjust process parameters such as feed rate, tension, or extrusion speed. The system integrates sensing, processing, and control within a compact embedded architecture implemented on a printed circuit board, thereby providing a cost-effective, scalable, and reliable solution for maintaining dimensional uniformity in industrial and laboratory applications."
