Achieving reliable thickness measurement in a production environment
Target materials and production processes influence how product thickness is measured. Methods may involve setting roller gaps, adjusting extrusion dies, or monitoring poured and cured materials such as glass, rubber, or metal. Secondary processes can include layered or bonded materials like carbon fibre. Measurement challenges vary, from gaps and roller systems to free space or single-sided checks on transparent materials. This webinar from Micro-Epsilon UK will illustrate a range of measurement techniques for these challenges
