The system is ideal for managing on-the-fly size changes, reducing the time it takes to get the bubble on size and minimizing changes in layflat due to temperature conditions or film stretch. Three ultrasonic sensors are positioned equidistant around the circumference of the bubble, situated just above the frost line, to measure the bubble diameter. A fourth reference sensor is used for automatic temperature compensation. A compressed-air operated correction unit is used introduce or extract air to or from the bubble to control the width to the target setpoint. For fully rotating dies, an optional air compressor in conjunction with a radio transmitter and receiver is used.
