Function
Two point-type laser sensors synchronously traverse the running product (tread, sidewall, inner liner, cord) and measure its external contours. The granite frame onto which the precise linear guides are mounted offers high temperature stability and reduced vibrations for highly accurate profile measurements.
Area of use
The high-accuracy online profile measurement system is used primarily in extrusion systems for the inspection of treads and sidewalls as well as inner liners. In hot areas, the profile measurement is used for production control in order to detect deviations from the specification as early as possible and alert the PLC. In cold areas, the profile measurement system is used for quality control and documentation.
Application
The E+L Triscan TR traversing system is used in the extrusion line immediately after the extruder (for process control) and/or preferably at the end of the cooling line (for quality assurance). It can also be used for thickness measurements in roller head calenders. The granite frame reduces thermally induced expansion many times over.
