Non-Destructive Residual Conductor Length Measurement

The patent creates a virtual copy of the circuit board structure through 3D modeling and simulation. Instead of physically cutting the actual circuit board for measurement, the system generates a digital replica that can be measured repeatedly without damaging the original. This allows precise measurement of residual conductive portion length while preserving the circuit board for continued use.

The patent replaces the mechanical cutting method with a computational measurement system. Instead of using physical tools to cut and measure the circuit board, the system uses 3D imaging, virtual modeling, and computer-based calculation to determine residual conductive portion length. This substitution eliminates the destructive mechanical process while maintaining measurement accuracy.

The system creates a digital twin or virtual model of the circuit board structure, allowing repeated measurements without consuming physical material. The 3D model captures all necessary geometric information about residual conductive portions, enabling accurate measurement while eliminating material loss that would occur through physical cutting and disposal of measured boards.

The patent transforms the measurement approach from physical dimension changes (cutting boards to different sizes) to parameter-based measurement through 3D imaging and computational analysis. By changing from mechanical removal of material to digital parameter extraction, the system achieves accurate measurements without any material loss or substance destruction.

The patent replaces mechanical measurement methods with optical or electromagnetic imaging techniques combined with computational analysis. Using 3D imaging capabilities and virtual modeling algorithms, the system achieves precise measurement of residual conductive portions without mechanical contact or destruction, thereby maintaining both board usability and measurement accuracy.

By creating accurate 3D digital copies or virtual models of the circuit board structure, the system enables precise measurement through computational methods rather than physical manipulation. The digital model preserves all geometric details of residual conductive portions, allowing high-precision measurement while keeping the original board intact and usable.
