Laser optical measurement cuts it!
How printing, corrugated board and packaging processes benefit from non-contact laser precise measurement
ProSpeed® optical sensors are the latest generation Laser Surface Velocimeters from Polytec. Polytec laser sensors measure length and speed with laser precision in a variety of applications in the plastics, converting and packaging industry including printing processes, laminating and coating systems, extrusion processes and many more. Measuring both speed and velocity components in the manufacturing process including stand-still conditions, makes the laser-based and nearly wear-free sensors the reliable alternative for conventional speed gauges such as encoder wheels. From synchronization of roll and sheet in winding and unwinding processes, dwell time determination in coating and surface treatment systems, control of cut-to-length processes or coil synchronization – modern printing, packaging and paper manufacturing benefit from this non-contact way for reliable and ultra-precise process control.
