Thickness measurements

“ Industry 4.0 for complex temperature requirements thicknessCONTROL MTS 8201.LLT is equipped with a patented temperature compensation feature. The machine includes a special, thermally-stable frame as reference. With additional sensor technology, the changes of the measurement frame caused by temperature fluctuations are measured and compensated for using special algorithms. This is how the operating range of the system – of which the real, temperature-dependent, geometric change simulates a change in thickness – is kept virtually constant. This approach, which relies on the philosophy of Industry 4.0, is one of several features that make the thicknessCONTROL MTS 8201.LLT an extremely reliable and robust measurement system. ”

Presentation

Due to its O-frame design, thicknessCONTROL MTS 8201.LLT is ideally suited to large widths and environments where there is insufficient space to position a C-frame alongside the production line. As well as the upper and lower boom, a linear axis is also integrated, on which a laser line sensor is installed. Both axes are mechanically coupled and move the sensors perpendicular to the strip run direction in order to measure the thickness profile. The measurement system is particularly suitable for slitting lines.

The high lateral resolution of the laser line enables high precision thickness measurements of each strip up to the edge. This is how every coil produced, even with very small widths, are evaluated and documented.

The large operating range of the thicknessCONTROL MTS 8201.LLT combined with high precision is important just after the cutter spindle, as the cutting process initiates vertical movements. Laser point sensors would not be able to provide the high precision at the measuring ranges required here.

From the different measurement techniques based on laser triangulation, the discrete laser line technology is the only method that compensates for tilt angle errors. This characteristic is a further, critical factor that ensures the outstanding accuracy of the system in such applications.

Also with measurements in front of the cutter, evaluation and documentation of individual stripes can be made when transmitting the cutter position.
