Paint Coating Lines and Organic Coating Lines with Thin to Ultra-Thin Coatings
The RM 320 FSIR coating weight gauge is used for precise, fast and non-contact coating weight cross-profile measurement of either single layer or multi-layer coatings of paint, lacquer, and organic polymers applied to steel, galvanized steel or aluminum sheets.
Measurements:
The RM 320 FSIR monitors infrared absorption from wavelengths of 1.35 to 3.4 microns. By simultaneously analyzing multiple wavelengths, the sensor can discriminate between different product components, as well as distinguish between components which exhibit similar but not identical IR absorption.
The detector's distributed processing enables the full spectrum to be measured in a fast sequence, providing a measurement which is insensitive to point-to-point formation variations in the coating. Conventional IR sensors, in contrast, exhibit up to a one second time delay between analysis points making them susceptible to errors due to coating and substrate variations.
Features:
- Extendable, Ethernet-based system architecture, powerful electronics.
- Central control of the gauges via one operator station. System operation via touch control screen or keyboard.
- Single beam or O-frame scanners available.
- FSIR measuring heads in compact design.
- Calibration/Laboratory gauge can be supplied for off-line measurement of new paint compositions to adjust the online coating weight gauge.
- Ethernet based or serial interface based communication protocols with customized data content.
