FilmProTM Infrared Measurement Sensor

Product catalog summary

Overview: The FilmPro is an advanced infrared gauge designed for accurate, repeatable, high-resolution thickness measurement of films, sheets, and coatings. It offers easy maintenance, installation, and does not require special radiation licenses.

Key Features:

Superior measurement for a wide variety of films.
Improved optical design for precision.
Optional Fringe Suppression Optics (FSO) for thin, clear films.
Measures multi-layer films and various film types including clear, pigmented, and black tinted films.
Measures thickness, weight, and density of voided, microporous, and breathable films.

Applications:

Biaxially Oriented Films: Provides high-resolution profiles and direct thickness measurement, addressing density variations.
Blown Film: Measures individual components and total thickness, offering advanced profile control.
Cast Film: Suitable for various cast films, including stretch and barrier films, with the ability to measure tinted films.
Organic Coatings: Simultaneously measures substrate and coating thickness.

Benefits:

Raw material savings and reduction in thickness rejects.
Improved control in both cross-direction (CD) and machine direction (MD).
Fast return on investment and low cost of ownership.
Safe, non-ionizing radiation measurement.

Specifications:

Measurement ranges for various film types.
High precision and repeatability.
Robust design with no routine maintenance required.
Network connectivity and compliance with environmental standards.

Contact Information: NDC Technologies is represented in over 60 countries, with contact details provided for various regions.

FilmPro delivers optimum measurement performance through its patented infrared design and world-class optical components. FilmPro has been engineered to provide reliable measurements in varying process or ambient conditions, such as: ► Lighting fluctuation ► Temperature variation ► Humidity changes ► Barometric pressure drift ► Web flutter ► Scanner mechanical run-out Unlike beta or x-ray gauges, FilmPro is easily maintained and does not require special radiation licenses, protective guarding or interlocked safety gates. FilmPro is easy to install and its measurement accuracy is assured with its straightforward calibration techniques. As a result, our worldwide customers benefit from the accuracy, reliability and performance that is the pedigree of NDC's advanced infrared measurement technology solutions.
