In this next phase of the industrial revolution, measurement technology plays a crucial role for quality-conscious organizations on the road to Industry 4.0.…
In recent times, we are witnessing a rapid increase in demand for extrusion coating and lamination materials over a wide range of products. Extrusion coating and laminating production lines are usually custom-built and can be configured for a variety of growing applications including aseptic packaging, flexible packaging, toothpaste tubes, medical packaging, contraceptives packaging industrial wraps and other uses. These growing applications attract many OEM’s to jump into manufacturing of extrusion coating and lamination machines.…
Accurate length and speed measurements of products in steel mill applications have been very difficult due to a number of mechanical system challenges, such as heat, debris build-up and the deterioration of mechanical parts. Yet, many metals producers still use mechanical contact encoders, such as wheel tachometers, to perform these product measurements.…
Accuracy is one of the most important specifications for a laser-based diameter measurement system and is sometimes the most confusing. Other terms that are used in context with the word accuracy include resolution and repeatability.…
