An elongated bending beam for a swivel bending machine has an approximately C-shaped beam cross section and two bending tools, which are opposite one another relative to a preferably horizontal central plane, and which run facing one another in the longitudinal direction of the bending beam, between which a workpiece portion of a workpiece to be bent can be introduced. An angle-measuring system for contactlessly measuring a bending angle is arranged inside the C-shape beam cross section, with which a bending angle can be measured relative to a reference plane at a workpiece section bent by one of the bending tools. The angle-measuring system also includes a first angle-measuring unit arranged below the central plane and having a first measuring region positioned substantially above the central plane, and a second angle-measuring unit arranged above the central plane and having a second measuring region positioned substantially below the central plane.

A method for estimating load weights for a work vehicle including a boom pivotably coupled to the chassis of the work vehicle at a boom joint and an implement pivotably coupled to the boom at an implement joint may include receiving an input indicative of a tilt force associated with a tilt cylinder configured to pivot the implement about the implement joint, and an input indicative of a lift force associated with a lift cylinder configured to pivot the boom about the boom joint. The method may further include determining a torque about the implement joint caused by the load based on the tilt force and determining a torque about the boom joint caused by the load based on the lift and tilt forces. Additionally, the method may include estimating a weight of the load based on the torques about the boom and implement joints.

A method for the vertical calibration of an agricultural machine wear tool is provided. The method includes: placing the wear tool in contact with a reference area; measuring the value of a position variable linked to the positioning of the wear tool when it is in contact with the reference area; determining the theoretical vertical positioning component of the wear tool according to the value measured, based on a reference curve; and determining a matching curve between a vertical positioning component of the wear tool and the position variable, by shifting the reference curve by a value equal to the theoretical vertical component.

A method for correcting a measurement value of a reference mark on a material web is disclosed. A controller, a machine, a computer program and a computer program product can perform a correction of this type. To improve determination of the position of a reference mark on a material web, a machine in which the material web is moved in a conveying direction has at least one tool that functions in a non-positive locking manner, a second tool that functions in a non-positive locking manner and is located downstream of the first tool in the conveying direction, and a sensor that is located between the two tools. A measurement error in the sensor which arises as a result of an adjustment of the second tool is determined at least approximately at least via parameter values of the second tool. The measurement value is corrected by the measurement error.
