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.

Plastic bag quality control using Digital Probes The position and measurements ofa 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. |
