Dynamic

 

Measuring material without stopping the production line has long been recognised as a cost-effective solution; however the process of such can prove tricky. Solartron's touch and non-contact probes can determine both the thickness and the surface finish.

Dynamic flatness measuring using Displacement S Series

 

Manufacturing companies undertaking the measurement of flatness for surface need to take precise readings for the smallest degree of change. The Orbit® 3 Network is able to take synchronised readings of several digital probes.

Paper and metals roller measurement

 

Ensuring the maintenance of rolling machines in paper and metals industries is paramount to ensuring the ouput material is of the correct standard. The Orbit® 3 measurement system supplies the roll grinder operator the data needed.


Plastic bag quality control using Digital Probes

 

The position and measurements of a zipper on a plastic bag needs to be taken in-process as the material is dispensed from a roll, prior to the cutting and heat sealing process. Measurements needed are height of the zipper whilst zipped and the gripper.

Thickness gauging of commercial product

 

With costs soaring and people becoming more environmentally aware, it is important for manufacturers of commercial products to try to reduce the amount of materials used where possible, achieved through thinner materials without compromising quality.


Measurement of moving materials

 

When measuring moving materials, systems need careful consideration before choosing the best product for the job. Linear forces through the flexure and no sliding components within the flexure help to ensure excellent performance and a very long life.

Aggregates and asphalts Testing

 

The concrete or aggregate tests involve small displacement under force applications. The behaviour of the sample is then analysed accurately and characterised.
