Measurement and inspection systems

thicknessGAUGE sensor systems are used for precise thickness measurements of strip materials, plates and sheets up to 50 mm. Several models with different sensor types, measuring ranges and measuring widths enable inline thickness measurements of different materials and surfaces based on an unmatched price/performance ratio.

This fully assembled system comprises a stable frame on which two optical distance sensors are fixed, which detect the thickness of the measuring object according to the difference principle. The sensors are perfectly aligned to each other in terms of their mounting condition. Furthermore, thickness calibration at the factory enables high precision thickness measurements.

A linear axis moves the sensor system from the parking position to the measuring position. A measurement standard for fully automatic calibration is in the parking position.

For the steel and aluminum industry, Micro-Epsilon offers innovative measuring and inspection systems for thickness, profile and surface measurements. Performance and quality, as well as reliability of products and services have made Micro-Epsilon one of the leading suppliers of inspection systems for optical thickness measurement used in the metals industry.

Our non-contact thickness measuring systems are used wherever high-precision thickness monitoring is required for control and quality assurance. Both in hot rolling mills, in continuous casting plants and in cold rolling mills and service centers, the Micro-Epsilon measuring systems operate reliably and with maximum precision. Numerous, successful installations in 13 countries around the world in milling lines and processing lines speak for themselves.

Micro-Epsilon is your reliable partner for measuring and inspection systems that are used equally by vehicle manufacturers and supplier companies. The measuring systems enable process stability, production reliability as well as quality. In addition, Micro-Epsilon's worldwide network enables efficient project handling on site.

The quality of electrode film is crucial for increasing the performance of future battery generations. In order to generate higher energy densities, coating and calendering processes must be performed with the highest precision. Micro-Epsilon offers high-precision measuring systems for the thickness measurement of coated and uncoated battery film. These systems are equipped with high-resolution sensors and increase process stability, production speed and quality in modern coating lines.

Micro-Epsilon is a reliable partner for precise inspection, monitoring and automation in the tire industry.
