Function
One or more sensors measure the product thickness in one or more locations continuously via differential measurements or reference measurements.
Here, there are various ways in which this system can be used: fixed measurement points or manually/ automatically adopted/traversed measuring points.
Area of use
Systems for the measurement of thickness are mostly used in calender and extrusion lines. EL-THICKNESS systems are highly modular and can be integrated flexibly into production lines.
Application
Thickness measurement systems can be installed in almost any position in roller head lines, calender lines and extrusion lines.
