FE-9 | Width Gauge

The FE-9 Measuring bar is a non contact width measuring system for blown film lines.

Two infrared TOF (Time of Flight) sensors detect the edges of the film. The TOF method allows a much more precise measurement on films with curled edges. The detected edges are used to calculate the width of the film. Since the measuring bar is located after the nips, it reads the film width after the bubble shrinkage, that makes the FE-9 a valuable tool on lines with our without IBC. 

The Powerbox is the interface to either the CUFE-9 display unit or the control system of the line.

Application: The FE-9 Measuring bar is a non contact width measuring device for blown film lines.
