The high-precision BOARDSCALE HF measures, in high resolution and across the entire material width, the weight per unit area distribution of finished materials (panels) directly after the press or saw. With this, minute deviations in the weight per unit area distribution can be detected.
Benefits at a glance
Complete non-contact measurement
Detection and optimisation of material consumption
Accuracy and flexibility due to high resolution and tareless measurement
Weight measurement of the entire panel and grid evaluation in a selectable resolution
Fluctuations in weight along and across production are immediately detected and can be corrected
Confidence against underweight panels or panel sections
Possibility for optimum nominal value adaptation
Little space required for installation
Measuring reliability due to quick calibration
Parallel measurements and comparison of laboratory cuts by BOARDSCALE HF and in the laboratory
Calculation of raw density in combination with a thickness gauge
Optional linkage with GreCon MATCONTROL HF for automatic regulation
Measuring Method
The BOARDSCALE HF uses the absorption measuring method. One or more X-ray sources are installed above the material flow. High-precision detectors below the material flow measure the residual radiation that has not been absorbed by the material. The weight per unit area and the material distribution can be determined from the degree of attenuation of the specific density of the penetrated material.
