Moisture measurement of waste paper bales

Moisture measurement of waste paper bales

The RP6 family humidity meters for recycled paper bales allow humidity to be measured quickly, reliably but above all manageable even by non-expert personnel. The system is based on the physical principle of capacitive coupling and allows for quick and accurate measurement of humidity inside the recycled paper bale by simply placing the instrument on the external surface of the bale. The instrument is equipped with a large and easily readable display even in poor lighting conditions (covered warehouses or holds) or in conditions of strong environmental or outdoor lighting. The instruments of the RP6 family are equipped with …
silos tank level control of dust, grains and pellets

Level measurements with LASER distance meters

Industries such as plastic molding, food processing and building materials all rely on bulk materials stored in silos, tanks or tanks. The LDM42 Series Laser Level Measurers provide efficient level measurement in tanks, silos or large containers. The INNOVACHECK system offers automatic level display on remote monitors to facilitate monitoring, measurement and traceability of material levels…
automatic warehouse measures trolleys position

Control of the position of trolleys and slides with LASER distance meters

The control of the position of trolleys and slides with LASER distance meters is one of the most used techniques in the industrial field for the non-contact measurement of moving objects in automatic warehouses and goods handling systems. In particular, these measuring instruments are very popular in the logistics and transport sector, where reliable positioning of moving parts is essential to ensure the quality of the goods picking and placing process. LASER distance meters are sensors capable of measuring the distance between two points with great precision without the need for physical contact. These …

Thickness measurement with fork feeler gauges for production lines

Thickness measurement is one of the main activities in manufacturing processes in industry and laboratory. The choice of the appropriate equipment is essential to ensure the precision required in the production process. An effective way to accurately measure thickness is to use contact-friendly thickness gauges, also known as digital contact gauges or contact micrometers. Contact thickness gauges are precise measuring instruments with a range of 0 to 300 millimeters (12″). They are equipped with touch probe systems that allow accurate and efficient thickness measurement. Furthermore, …
Ultrasonic thickness gauge for thickness and corrosion limit measurements

Ultrasonic thickness gauges for corrosion monitoring

Ultrasonic thickness gauges are a valuable tool for corrosion monitoring and quality control. These are devices that use ultrasound to measure the thickness of materials such as metals, alloys, plastics, and ceramic compounds. They are used in a variety of industrial fields ranging from corrosion analysis, thickness measurement, preventive maintenance, to pipeline analysis and tank thickness control. Ultrasonic thickness gauges allow you to determine structural integrity or structural integrity during structural and protective inspections. They also provide detailed information on the internal condition of the examined material and can identify any problems…
torquemeters for caps for screwing and unscrewing force measurements on bottles and flasks

Measure the cap torque of containers and bottles with cap torque transducers

Cap torque meters for measuring the tightening torque, both during screwing and unscrewing, of bottle caps, barrels, containers, jars, bottles, containers and cans. Cap torque meters for measuring the tightening torque, both during screwing and unscrewing, of bottle caps, barrels, containers, jars, bottles, containers and cans. The CAP-TT01 series cap torque transducers are designed to measure cap tightening and cap removal torque up to 11,5 Nm (100 lbFin). Adjustable stands effectively hold a wide range of shapes and sizes in place…

Deepening

To guarantee the highest quality of food products and jams, it is essential to carry out accurate dimensional measurements and controls, in order to guarantee compliance with the safety and quality standards required by consumers.

In this context, technologies such as LASER distance meters and LASER sensors are particularly useful, as they allow for reliable and precise non-contact measurements. Thanks to these solutions, it is possible to obtain real-time data on the products, monitoring for example the thickness of the candies or the distance between the products.

Even the archimeters for measuring radii and those for bending machines represent a valuable solution for the food and jam sector. These tools allow you to make precise measurements on the surface of curved products such as jam jars and chocolates, ensuring the dimensional quality of the products and preventing any reject problems.

But not only. Vision systems, artificial intelligence and LED illuminators are other technologies that are establishing themselves in the field of measurement and quality control in the food sector. Thanks to their use, it is possible to control various parameters, such as colour, shape and the presence of defects, monitoring production in real time and preventing any problems.

Torque transducers and industrial stroboscopes are also extremely useful, especially for the production of lids and caps. These tools allow you to check the correct application of force on the corks, preventing any dispersions of liquids and guaranteeing maximum sealing.

In conclusion, the technologies for measuring and dimensional control in the food and jam sector are increasingly advanced and precise, making it possible to guarantee the highest quality of products and food safety for consumers. The combined use of these solutions allows to guarantee high quality standards and, at the same time, to optimize the production process, reducing costs and minimizing waste.
