Gauge Electronics
The modern Coating Measurement System, designed to be flexible and with open software architecture without compromising on system reliability, availability and ease of maintenance. The system fulfils all these needs using the latest in electronic technology and proven heavy duty mechanical components.
The system is designed to concentrate on the most important task of accurate and stable measurements of the coated material. The sensors are mounted on a high precision scanner platform which carries the sensors and scans across the sheet continuously. The scanner has all the function control and signal conversion/processing electronics included in a side panel. All measurement data from scanner is sent digitally via RS485 link to a PC based system which processes all measurements, generate profiles, implements calibration tools, display maintenance data and machine operations.
The Operator interface is implemented on another PC based system which is connected to the processing system through Ethernet link. The Operator interface is based on Labview™ which is highly user customizable and adaptable to varying mill requirements. Comprehensive production reports are generated for storage and hard copy.
The whole set of profiles and measurement parameters from the processing system are available through an OPC server for mill wide access.
