AIS Gauging Reports Measurement System

Published: January 02, 2018

TERRE HAUTE, IN | AIS Gauging announces its new Gemini Full Width Measurement system for web industries. The Gemini FWM system reportedly brings a completely new measurement approach that gives an entirely new perspective to product quality. 

This non-traversing x-ray array measurement system combines web inspection and web gauging into a single platform for full-width, instantaneous, 100% product inspection and measurement without electromechanical scanners that sample just a fraction of the total product. The Gemini system starts measuring at the product’s surface and continues through the entire material to construct and analyze a complete picture of quality.

The system is a non-scanning, non-contact, full-width measurement array platform utilizing multiple x-ray sources and receivers. Gemini’s x-ray technology is able to immediately detect, display, and report non-visible defects that are embedded within the product using high-speed, continuous measurement that can detect defects down to <1mm.

System includes intuitive quality maps that show data in a video format, including 3D analysis software, so that defects both on the surface and within the product can be quickly identified for later removal. Real-time displays and alarms show defect sizes and their location for easy downstream removal. Defect information is captured, categorized, and saved locally and can be exported and archived for further analysis.

Company says that with instantaneous thickness or weight measurement, the system offers the ultimate in high-speed quality visibility without data filtering or measurement delays as experienced with conventional scanning equipment. Gemini’s instantaneous true weight or thickness measurement is said to be processed with ultra-fast high-resolution, to provide a “never-seen-before” insight into quality.
