Optical Control Systems - Raw Material Inspection Systems

Are used to produce sample films at a laboratory level to provide the raw material a real time quality control during production process by mounting optical, physical, rheological and chemical control systems.

Films, plaques, liquids contamination detection in polymers and other substances.

The “stand alone” laboratory systems are used in research and development (R&D) centres, or for the quality control (QC) and quality assurance (QA) of polymer film samples. Plaques, liquids and the film surface analysers are used for on-line systems that monitor the polymer quality during the production and improve the process control, and well as for the off-line systems that detect impurities and contamination in slender sheets.

 

Are designed to test the consistency of the external and physical conditions of the polymer & petrochemical material or exposures in it. These are measurable in gloss-, thickness-, haze loss, partial unevenness or by testing the chemical consistency, additive and density composition of the material by infrared spectroscopy. The systems are applicable on several cast- and blow film lines. As laboratory systems they ensure quality control (QC) and quality assurance (QA), while as on-line systems they improve the process control.

In the laboratory, these systems are used for quality assurance (QA) and quality control (QC) of the pellets and powder, as on-line systems they monitor the polymer quality during the production and improve the process control.

 

Determine on-line viscosity with continuous melt measurements removing the need for manual measurement to be taken. Measuring the environmental stress cracking behaviour classifies polyethylene materials in regards to their slow crack growth behaviour under accelerated conditions.
