Applications

The paper quality is often already determined in the headbox of a paper machine. The appropriate ratio between wire speed and jet beam velocity must be maintained, but the pulp jet velocity should be as homogeneous as possible within the headbox. Therefore, there should be no or only very small speed differences. It is not easy to ensure this and it is not possible to check speed differences with tactile measuring equipment. µSPEED laser encoder systems work contactless and are even suitable for this measuring application, so for measuring differences between paper wire and stock steel or within the headbox. Therefore µSPEED systems are an important tool for trouble shooting in paper production!

The Czech Institute for Metrology CMI has recently granted MID 2014/32 / EU approval for a cable measuring machine based on the laser encoder μSPEED-PRO and the counter MID-COUNTER. The cable length measuring machine is designed for cable diameters from 8mm to 60mm. The length measuring machine is part of a cable rewinder from Cabmat.

Another milestone in the product range of SLM discrete part length measurement systems has been reached. SLM now measures the length o transparent, optical film format sheets with high precision. A first line was taken by a well-known manufacturer of optical film for displays and monitors with flying colors. One day on the spot to … Weiterlesen …

Thanks to the laser encoder μSPEED, submarine cables of the correct length are picked up on land with several ships worldwide and deployed on the high seas. It’s about cable lengths of several hundred kilometers. If the loaded length is not correct, this can not be corrected at sea. The ELOVIS systems work with high … Weiterlesen …
