| Use
and technique Surface finishing is becoming increasingly important in many different areas of application technology, including the automobile, household appliance, construction and packing industries. Continuous coating procedures, such as galvanised coating or fired, foil or lacquer coating of steel and aluminium strips, create surfaces which decisively improve the usage characteristics and corrosion resistance of sheets. |
|
For car body sheets, more and more use is being made of Bonazinc and Granocoat processes. This is a
galvanised coating process followed by lacquer coating.
IMS provides highly-sensitive measuring devices for all of the areas mentioned. In conjunction with adequate
regulating devices, these significantly improve both quality and cost
efficiency.
Coating materials
We produce high-performance measuring systems with radiotechnology for different coatings:
| - Zinc - Zinc/aluminium - Zinc/nickel |
- Tin - Terne - Aluminium |
- Chrome - Foil - Lacquer |
- Granocoat - Bonazinc etc. |
Quality and
profitability
By applying these modern measuring systems together with adequate regulating
systems, our customers
not only reduce costs but gain several other substantial
advantages:
| Improved uniformity of the
coating thickness, in particular under the following conditions : - Change in coating (material or thickness) - Changes in speed of the coating line - Altered plant conditions Improved economy through : - Optimal operation near the lower limit of coating tolerance - Minimum coating thickness independently of the operator - Shortest changeover for coating changes - Less stress for the operators |
| - Measurement accuracy to 0.2 % - Measurement time constant to 50 ms - Continuous non-contact data acquisition - High reliability |
- Radioisotope and X-ray
technology - Fast, high precision detectors - High performance computer systems - Robust, heavy duty rolling-mill construction |
Measuring points in different explanations
The following overview shows you a few examples from a multitude of possible applications.| Measuring
system to determine the coating thickness on both sides in the centre of
the strip System design: Movable measuring system with two measuring heads for continuosly recording the lengthwise thickness profile of the coating on the top and bottom sides of the strip. |

| Measuring
system to determine the coating thickness on both sides in the centre of
the strip System design: Measuring system with traversing measuring heads for continuously recording the lengthwise and widthwise thickness profile of the coating on the top and bottom sides of the strip. |
 |
| Measuring
system to determine the coating thickness on both sides in the centre of
the strip System design: Swivelling back-scatter system with a traversing measuring head for continuously recording the lengthwise and widthwise thickness profile of the coating on the top and bottom sides of the strip. |
