The Nordson cScan+ film thickness measuring system provides automatic, non-destructive measurement of inorganic and organic coatings on metallic and non-metallic surfaces.
Using the innovative, award-winning SpecMetrix® optical sensory technology from Sensory Analytics® , the cScan+ gauge is capable of precisely measuring thicknesses ranging from 200 nanometers to 200 microns (0.01 to 8.00 mils).
- Specifically designed for the packaging industries, including metal, glass and metal containers
- Measures over complex geometry
- Scalable to meet manufacturing and quality demands
- Both inside and outside film thickness of metal cans may be measured automatically.
More Advantages of the cScan+ gauge with SpecMetrix® technology:
- Non-contact measurement
- Better quality with accurate, thorough measurement.
- Process improvement through better analysis of coating distribution.
- Improves start-up efficiency
- Yields real-time results
- Helps eliminate scrap and rework
- Flexibility to accommodate different products, changing product designs
WHAT the cScan+ gauge measures:
- Internal lacquer coatings and exterior varnish coatings on beverage and food cans
- Applied film thickness of certain pigmented coatings used for food containers
HOW the cScan+ gauge measures:
 |
By accurately and quickly sampling numerous data points on the entire container substrate, the cScan+ gauge creates a film thickness map. |
This is useful to achieve optimum coating distribution for the container, significantly eliminating excess coating and sustaining maximum container quality.
