Abstract
In order for a supplier of connectors to reduce personnel costs and to guarantee customers a consistently high quality standard promptly and reliably, even for global data traffic, a method for identifying connectors, comprising the following steps, is proposed: a. automatic identification of components (10, 2, 3, 3′, 3″) of an industrial connector (1), from at least one image file; b. analysis of the geometric relationships and/or functional connections between the components (10, 2, 3, 3′, 3″); c. extraction of individual characteristics of the components (10, 2, 3, 3′, 3″) from the image file using information obtained in step b.
