Deposit gauge CW 9000

thicknessmanualfor films and thin products

Overview
The CW 9000 gauge performs ultra-accurate measurements of coat weight and mix ratio across a wide range of converting applications (solventless, solvent-based, water-based) to tightly control processes. It is optimized for thin coatings below 5 microns/g/m² on various substrates and fits compact coating and laminating lines including single coating stations, duplex and triplex laminators. The instrument provides high-speed measurements with excellent profile resolution for high/low coating bands and features a large product stand-off to minimize web contact and contamination.

Features & Benefits

• Precise measurement of adhesive coat weight and in-line mix ratio monitoring.
• Real-time visibility of isocyanate mix ratio to reduce material waste.
• Compact design optimized for coaters and laminators with limited space.
• Built-in connectivity for process integration and quality data capture.

Applications

• Clear films
• Printed films
• Metallized films
• Aluminium foils
• Metallized paper

LPS 1000 Scanner (Companion product)
The LPS 1000 is a compact scanner engineered for the CW 9000. It mounts between machine side frames and suits main coating and lamination lines. The self-contained design prevents dust ingress to the web.

• Sturdy extruded aluminium beam
• Fast bi-directional scanning
• Power track fully contained in the beam (no exposed parts)
• Cover traps dust generated inside the scanner
• Bottom mount or end mount options
• Vector precision drive
• Supplied with external electrical box
• Available in widths matching major OEM lines
