One-sided thickness measurement of plastics                                                                              Product Technology
 

The combiSENSOR series sets new standards in non-contact thickness measurement. These precise sensors combine the advantages of eddy current and capacitive sensor technology in a single housing. This innovative technology enables the micrometer-precise measurement of material thicknesses, e.g. of battery coatings and plastic films. Target thicknesses as low as 5 µm can be detected. In addition, their robust design ensures that the sensors work reliably even in harsh industrial environments with high temperatures.

The combiSENSOR series is the optimal solution for inline thickness measurements of electrode coatings, coated metals and films requiring highest precision and reliability.
 
 

 Characteristics

  •  Precise thickness measurement of coatings and films from 5 µm
  •  Stable measurement with 0.02 µm resolution
  •  Integrated function for determining the permittivity
  •  Integrated temperature detection for the sensor temperature output
  •  Robust design, ideal for high ambient temperatures
  •  Analog interface, Ethernet / EtherCAT / PROFINET
  •  Simple operation via web interface
 

Robust design for harsh environments
 

The combiSENSOR series not only impresses with its technical performance, but also with its robust design.
Therefore, the sensors can also be used in harsh industrial environments with high temperatures of up to 180° C.


Whether electrode coating, plastic films or coated metals - the combiSENSOR series is versatile and ensures consistently high quality in strip processes.

Sensor system for precise thickness measurement of electrode coatings

  •  One-sided thickness measurement of electrode coating
  •  Target thickness: 5 µm to max. 3 mm
  •  Measurement on steel rollers with chrome coating
  •  Temperature range of sensor -10 °C … +180 °C
  •  High resolution 0.05 µm

The combiSENSOR KSB6430 measures the thickness of electrode coatings from a material thickness of just 5 µm. The thickness is measured on a chrome-coated roller which guides the material. Due to its robust design and high accuracy, the KSB6430 is ideal for inline thickness monitoring in battery film coating processes.

  

Sensor system for precise thickness measurement of plastic films and coatings

  •  One-sided thickness measurement of plastic film & coated metals
  •  Target thickness: 40 µm to max. 6 mm
  •  Measurement on metal rollers or metal plates
  •  Temperature range of sensor -10 °C … +85 °C
  •  High resolution 0.05 µm

The combiSENSOR KSS64x0 enables precise, non-contact thickness measurement of non-conductive materials such as plastic films or coatings on metallic reference objects. The sensor's robust design makes it ideal for use in a wide range of industrial applications.
 
 

Measuring principle
 
The combiSENSOR measures the coating thickness with a capacitive sensor to measure the distance from the coating and an eddy current sensor to measure the distance from the metal roller. The difference between the two signals provides the total thickness of the coated film, while mechanical influences are automatically compensated for.

Measuring the thermal extension in spindles

 

Compact Structure

The SGS 4701 consists of a sensor, a sensor cable and a controller, factory calibrated for ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic measurement objects. Two miniature sensors enable it to be installed directly in the spindle. The compact controller can be installed on the spindle housing via a flange or directly in the spindle.
 

Robust design

The SGS 4701 operates on the eddy current measuring principle. This non-contact measurement is wear-free. Furthermore, the measurement procedure is resistant to disturbances such as heat, dust and oil.

Magnetic displacement measurement in series (MDS-40-OEM)

 
 
 

OEM sensors according to the inductive magnetic principle can be adapted to customer requirements very quickly and easily. Measuring ranges up to 60 mm are currently possible. The sensor can vary in shape, size and type of output. Only a small magnet has to be attached as target to the measurement object. MDS sensors provide a very high resolution and measure particularly fast movements. The MDS is available as a pure circuit board version or also in a plastic case.
