- Published: October 14, 2020
Automation system integrator and industrial services company Quad Plus has announced new vertically integrated services for gauging measurements for extrusion, coatings, calendering, converting, and paper production lines.
The hardware and software included in Quad Plus’s web gauging systems include a scanning frame custom-built for the specific line, web gauging sensor technology ideal to the application, and web gauging system software with proven control algorithms.
Utilizing its extensive process knowledge and committing to highly efficient installation and commissioning practices, Quad Plus can reportedly design and implement these online thickness gauging solutions with minimal interruption to production lines and optimal performance configurations.
“Tightening competition among end users has driven the need to automate manual processes, cut operating costs, and adhere to strict sustainability standards,” said John Crosetto, chief executive officer, Quad Plus. “To thrive in this new climate, manufacturers need to modernize machinery without making large capital investments that take years to reach project payback.”
Automating continuous thickness measurement methods with a web gauging system could allow for equipment digitalization that yields positive financial benefits quickly through improved throughput of in-spec product and waste reduction from real-time issue identification.
