Plastic, rubber

The plastics area requires all kinds of measurements. Whether on final products such as motor vehicle tires, during the production of different compounds in the extruder or already previously during the manufacture of different pellets and additives. The thickness of the product itself is frequently measured instead of displacements and distances. On the other hand, distances and temperatures on the production systems are often measured.
