Abstract
In some implementations, a monitoring system may include a steering system of a machine, a sensor configured to detect movements of the steering system that are indicative of a steering angle of the machine, and a controller. The controller may be configured to monitor, via the sensor, the steering angle of the machine. The controller may be configured to determine, based on monitoring the steering angle, that the steering angle satisfies a threshold that is indicative of the steering angle being excessive for an operation of the machine. The controller may be configured to cause, based on the steering angle satisfying the threshold, the machine to provide an indication that the steering angle is excessive.

Full Text
- a continuous furnace (1) for continuously heating material (3) on an endlessly circulating conveyor belt (10) anda press (2) provided downstream in the production direction (15),wherein the continuous furnace (1) comprises a plurality of magnetrons (4) for generating electromagnetic waves and hollow conductors (5) with outlet openings (6) for feeding the waves into a radiation chamber (14). The invention is intended to solve the problem of reacting to various operating modes for the continuous furnace and, in particular, to heat up the material used in the best possible manner for later pressing. The invention is characterized in that a control or regulating apparatus (17) is arranged for controlling individual or grouped magnetrons (4) in order to provide them with different powers (L) for producing a differentiated power profile (9), preferably in and/or transversely to the production direction (15). (1491)
