Advancing Precision Measurement in the Converting Industry

Expanding Innovation, Reliability, and Global Support for Advanced Basis Weight and Thickness Measurement Solutions

According to the company group, this strategic move highlights Marposs’ commitment to reliability and innovation into new markets, setting the stage for a new era in the converting industry.

Since 1952, Marposs has built a global reputation for precision and quality in industries like automotive, electronics, and aerospace. This history of excellence now extends to the converting industry, where MeSys’ basis weight measurement technologies will be elevated by Marposs’s global infrastructure of service, support, and development. The collaboration between the specialists at MeSys and Marposs promises groundbreaking products tailored to the unique demands of the converting industry.

With the integration of advanced sensor technologies from the Marposs Group, MeSys now offers its customers an even broader range of solutions. Along with its established expertise in ultrasonic basis weight measurement, the company is now equipped with some of the most advanced technologies in thickness measurement, including chromatic confocal systems and laser micrometers. These are all proprietary, in-house innovations developed within the Marposs Group, designed to meet the evolving needs of modern industries. In addition, MeSys now benefits from access to a global network of service, research, and development resources.

On top of enhancing MeSys’ product portfolio, the acquisition provides it with access to Marposs’ extensive global network of over 80 offices in 34 countries and more than 3,500 employees. This global infrastructure ensures customers receive unmatched support and solutions designed to anticipate future industry challenges.

With Marposs’ support, MeSys is positioned to support and provide improved measurement solutions in sectors such as films, foils, and laminates within the converting industry, as well as battery production, automotive, and electronics, all of which rely on precise standards for quality control. These industries demand high standards of precision, making MeSys’ advanced measurement technologies a vital asset. Addi- tionally, the company’s sensors have the potential to contribute significantly to sustainability efforts, particularly in electric vehicle battery production, where accurate basis weight and thickness measurements are essential for efficiency and safety.

The collaboration between Marposs and MeSys has already yielded innovative solutions, such as Unisense Smart, which has been launched in time for ICE

Europe 2025. This product is the result of collaboration between the two respective engineering teams and features state-of- the-art technology. In detail, the electronics that were previously mounted on the machine are now decoupled and come with a series of improvements designed to increase performance.

Combining the expertise of both companies, Unisense Smart sets new benchmarks for web film basis weight measurement, offering impressive accuracy and a modern design.

As a part of the Marposs Group, MeSys is now well-equipped to remain a leader in the converting industry. With an expanded product portfolio and access to Marposs’ research and development resources, MeSys is positioned to drive innovation and deliver high-quality measurement solutions across multiple sectors. Together, Marposs and MeSys aim at setting a new standard for the industry, pushing the boundaries of precision measurement and quality control while ensuring lasting value for their customers.
