APPLICATION NOTE WEB GAUGING ► Abrasives ► Adhesive Coating ► Coil & Foil Coating ► Extrusion Coating ► Lamination ► Paper Coating ► Specialty Coating ► Textile Coating The converting industry includes a wide range of applications and processes, each with different measurement and control requirements. This includes single coater stations up through complex, multi-scanner tandem extrusion lamination lines with advanced web gauging measurements and controls. NDC’s family of web gauging systems are uniquely positioned to address the challenges of the converting industry. With nine distinct...

APPLICATION NOTE WEB GAUGING ► Direct Selective Measurement: A single infrared sensor can be used where coat weight measurement is required. NDC’s infrared sensor measures just the coating layer directly and independently from the substrate layer with its selective measurement technology. ► Combination Measurement: Two sensors are placed on a single scanner after the coater. The selective sensor measures the coating directly while the basis weight sensor measures total mass. The basis weight of the substrate is determined by subtraction. ► Differential or Subtractive Coat Weight...

APPLICATION NOTE WEB GAUGING Accurate, Reliable Measurement Application-matched sensors that produce superior results from your process NDC710S & FS710S ► NDC710S Infrared The NDC710S backscatter sensor provides high-resolution, accurate coat weight, laminate and moisture measurement for paper and other substrates. Selective infrared technologies provide direct coat weight measurements that can discriminate up to 6 components in coatings without the need for additional scanners and sensors. ► FS710S Infrared The FS710S measures moisture in both paper and board. Its forward-scatter...

APPLICATION NOTE WEB GAUGING Same-Spot Measurement Precisely coordinates the sampling and data collection of substrate and coated product gauges to provide accurate, responsive coat weight measurement by directly linking scanning speed to the process line speed. Accurate measurement is maintained throughout line speed changes. FastStart Fast Start provides an early indication of coat weight during start-up and product changes and is valuable for multi scanner measurement configurations. Once the process lag-time between scanners has passed, the system automatically transfers scanner timing...
