K-XRAY Rotomat KT 3G
Even with extremely thin and touch-sensitive barrier films, the sensor of the K-XRAY Rotomat KT allows high-resolution thickness measurement. It is based on X-ray backscatter technology and uses a temperature-controlled air cushion. Mounted on a oscillating scanner with a bending arm, this is the fastest possible method of measuring the thickness profile directly on the bubble of a barrier film line.
Application
- Largely contactless thickness measurement on the cylindrical film bubble
- Suitable for barrier films made of PE, PP, PA, EVOH, TPU and comparable materials
- For tacky films
Special Features
- Temperature controlled air gap between sensor and film (Unique feature)
- Faster profile aquisition compared to gauges located after the nips
- Simple operation license procedure compared to solid state radiation devices
Technology
- Radiometric thickness measurement using X-ray backscattering (Unique feature)
- Oscillating scanner with bending arm
