The application
The DELTA MASTER-3 system offers accurate thickness measurements both for materials with smooth, flat surfaces and materials with heavily structured surfaces.
The systems are camera-based and serve for online monitoring and control of the production of bitumen sheets, mineral wool, felts, rubber and caoutchouc sheets, floorings, carpets, open-pore foams, composite materials and much more besides.
Examples of use:
- Bituminous sheeting
- Rubber and caoutchouc
- Mineral wool
- Foams
- Nonwovens
The task
The solution
Typical applications that were installed at companies which produce rubber, bitumen and foam sheet as well as mineral wool.
The continuously produced light to jet black sheets are either run on a reference roll and a plurality of measuring heads DELTA MASTER unilateral measure against the roller as a reference on the web width in the thickness, or with 2 DELTA MASTER-sensors (one below, above, the other the product) is measured as the difference.
