Thermal Imaging

Thermal Imaging

Raytek® offers highly customized process imaging systems to meet specific application requirements. The ES100 and EC100 Process Imaging Systems are designed especially for continuous extrusion flat web processes. These systems are being used successfully today in applications including sheet, cast film, blown film, extrusion coating, and flexible packaging lamination.
The these systems provide an advanced capability for monitoring temperature distributions of plastic sheet and cast film extrusion. Using the MP50 Process Imager the systems can be configured in measurement sectors coinciding with each die bolt to facilitate temperature monitoring . Temperature variations that cause polymer viscosity changes and flow disturbances can be detected as well as defects such as "wavy edges" or "edge tears". Continuous on-line monitoring provides hard data for:
Isolating Die Bolt Failure
Identifying Edge Defects
Improved Product Uniformity
Temperature Dependent Property Assurance
Film to Substrate Adhesion
Heat Seal Degradation
Organoleptic Correlations

The most widely used solution for real-time process temperature imaging and analysis

Application specific software and configuration capabilities provide for easy set up and immediate benefits. View complete thermal images with temperature profiles. Automatically analyze user defined sectors and set fail safe alarms for documentation or control. Raytek's® Process Imaging Systems are the only tools that provide for continuous on-line measurement and analysis of critical extrusion processing conditions.
