PROSCAN MASTERTRAK 2
The Proscan MasterTrak 2 measures and controls product width or thickness. Using non-contact measurement to capture the true width or thickness profile of continuous or cut product, the system offers a flexible solution for on-line measurement. When used to measure thickness. the system can be supplied to measure either single or multiple points across the width of the product. The MasterTrak 2 is capable of measuring accurately on materials such as soft, fragile, abrasive and many other types of product, where traditional contact methods have proved not to be effective.
Proscan MasterTrak 2
is a real time width or thickness monitor, displaying absolute dimensions to
the process line operator. In addition to this invaluable function, the system
also logs every measurement, enabling detailed statistical reports to be
produced. The Proscan MasterTrak 2 has an option available for proportional
feedback control for automatically regulating the process to maintain the
correct dimensions.
The system comprises of a
pair of measurement sensors, one either side, or above and below, the product. These sensors continuously
measure the dimension of the product as it passes between them. These
measurements are then fed to a Windows based software package.
Improved Accuracy: A choice of sensor options allows you to maximise measurement accuracy for your application.
Improved Repeatability: As the Proscan MasterTrak 2 is non-contact it is not subject to wear or variables associated with mechanical or human intervention. This means that regular remastering is not required.
Cost Savings: By continuous
monitoring and reducing the need for manual measurement significant cost
savings can be achieved. In many cases improved process control makes it
possible to reduce nominal
values to the lower end of the specified tolerance
band resulting in material cost savings. Typically the investment cost of a Proscan MasterTrak system will be recovered in just a few months.
Improved Quality: The Proscan MasterTrak can form a very important part of a quality control system ensuring 100% dimensional logging and control.
Low Maintenance: Because the Proscan MasterTrak 2 has no contact with the product mechanical wear is minimal and very little maintenance required.
Reliability: The system has been robustly designed to give reliable operation in production environments.
Simple installation: The Proscan MasterTrak 2 has been specially designed to make the installation simple minimising the implementation costs.
