The Torus Easi-Check Artefact is a valuable instrument that enables users to perform interim verification checks on their CMM at periodic intervals.
Key terms Term Definition Closed loop control Feeding real-time measurement back to line controls so the process adjusts itself automatically to stay on target. Coating weight / coat weight The amount of coating applied per unit area of coil, the parameter held on target. Wet film thickness (WFT) Coating thickness measured immediately after application, before…
On a coil coating line, applying proper thickness of coating or paint is of paramount significance . Too little coating risks under-protection and quality failures and potential claims; too much application wastes expensive paint and adds cost to every meter of coil. Traditionally, coating thickness is checked by manual or offline sampling, which means the…
Closed Loop Control in Coil Coating with SpecMetrix Closed loop control is establishing an automated process where real-time coating thickness measurements are fed back to the coating line's controls, so the line adjusts itself automatically to dynamically adjust to the target coating weight. Instead of relying on manual control, manual checks or offline sampling, the line responds…
