KAPA features a dual sensor system for non-contact measuring of films and sheets up to 6 mm thick – with extreme accuracy.
KAPA is a non–nuclear technology that does not require licensing or protection guards.
Applications Include: Extruded Mono and Multilayer Plastic Film and Sheet, Thermoforming Sheet (PP, PE, PET, PS, ABS, PVC etc) , Land Fill Liners etc…
Two thickness ranges are available:
KAPA controls thickness in films and sheets extrusion applications with narrow thickness tolerances – for high quality production where every batch needs to be perfect.
Applications Include: Extruded Mono and Multilayer Plastic Film and Sheet, Thermoforming Sheet (PP, PE, PET, PS, ABS, PVC etc) , Land Fill Liners etc…
Two thickness ranges are available:
KAPA thickness gauges are available in widths of 500 mm to 8 meter
Ultra-precise thickness measuring with an accuracy of ≤ 0,1 µm
KAPA I and II series are suitable for material thickness of up to 3 mm / 6 mm respectively
KAPA uses a non-contact, indirect measuring method with a dual sensor configuration and a measuring roller. This extremely robust sensor combination in one housing features capacitive and eddy current sensors.
