This system offers the same facilities as the original Proscan Magnum i.e. Wave length, wave height and I-units. Options such as cross bow, length, width and diagonals are also available. 

 

Retro comes in two versions; top and side mounted. Either version can be employed Computer generated 3D image of the retrofit assemblydepending on accessibility.  

 

The benifits are many: 

  1. In line measurement
  2. Measurement on relaxed strip
  3. Easy installation
  4. Lower price
  5. Reduced shipping costs
  6. Report with I-units, wave length and wave height

 

 

Innovations in mechanical design makes installation and alignment very easy, even if the surface table isn't perfectly flat.

Proscan Magnum uses optical measurement techniques. A laser mounted on a gantry system, scans up to 15 profile lines on the strip with a speed of 1m/sec taking measurements every mm

 

The values are presented for each profile line together with a 3D display and a plan view as shown in the image to the right.

 

Proscan Magnum is a complete shape measurement system that gives unprecedented results. These systems are currently being used by the worlds leading aluminium mills, such as Alcoa, Hindalco, Bridgnorth and Star Aluminium
