Moisture and Coatweight Gauge for Web processes

...for Web Processes

  IG710e
NIR process gauge specialist, NDC Infrared Engineering Ltd, launches the IG710e range of Ethernet-enabled on-line gauges for the simultaneous measurement of coat weight and moisture on paper and other substrates. A huge range of coatings including adhesives, impregnations and organic or water based coatings can be measured on a wide range of paper, plastic, textile and nonwoven substrates.
The 4th Generation IG710e combines the proven light engine from the IG710 with new, high-speed digital processing technology and Ethernet and other digital communication protocol connectivity. This combination produces the high accuracy, robust real-time measurements essential for use in closed-loop control, yet offers extraordinary flexibility and simplicity of installation and operation.
By providing highly accurate process measurements that can help avoid costly production downtime and utilizing industry-standard Ethernet communication hardware such as cables, repeaters and routers, the modular IG710e system offers low installation costs, low cost of ownership and a fast return on investment.
With Ethernet communication as standard and the option to extend to Ethernet IP, Profinet, Modbus TCP, Profibus DP or DeviceNet, together with Automatic Device Discovery capability, the system can be readily integrated into existing factory networks and management information systems. Complex power supply configurations are avoided since all IG710e components run on 24V DC either from an on-site supply or power over Ethernet (POE).
Series 710e Peripheral Devices are available to connect to the gauges via standard Cat5E cable, including:
  • Operator Workstation (OWS)
  • Human Machine Interface (HMI)
  • User Port
  • Switched Network Hub
 At the heart of the IG710e Gauge is NDC’s patented near infrared light engine. Using high precision optical components manufactured in- house by NDC’s Optics Division, the pre-calibrated system is capable of using up to 16 different wavelengths. Designed to give reliable, repeatable measurements of the highest accuracy, the robust optics ensure that the gauge rejects any interferences from external contributions from the process which could affect the measured values.
The OWS provides operator-level interaction with an individual gauge; the HMI provides supervisory access to up to 16 networked IG710e gauges. Both units feature high definition multi-lingual colour touch screen displays. The User Port provides additional analogue outputs and digital I/O for any connected gauge. These include contributions from ambient light, relative humidity, colour variations and temperature, as well as variations in product height as it passes under the gauge. The new high-speed light sampling and digital signal processing incorporated into the gauge means low background noise giving high quality clean signals for process control and is ideal for high-speed web applications whether scanning or not.

Gauge Tools XL Software
     
To facilitate this process, NDC provides GaugeToolsXLTM software which is packed with useful features to help our customers get the most out of their on-line measurement gauge from NDC - not just to achieve agreement with the laboratory. GaugeToolsXLTM provides the following seven tools:
  • Simple Display
  • Trend
  • History Tool
  • Linefit Calibration
  • Logger
  • Configuration
  • Gauge Utility
     
Every Series 710e Gauge from NDC Infrared Engineering is supplied ready to use for the application and measurement ranges our customer requires. Each gauge contains a measurement algorithm or formula which makes the gauge respond in a proportional and linear way to changes in the measured parameter. The display is fully user-configurable and you can save your workspace for future use. Connectivity options include: USB, Serial and Ethernet. Running GaugeToolsXLTM on one PC, you can communicate with all gauges connected to the same network.
The purpose of a 710e Gauge is to provide you with real-time measurements to laboratory accuracy, which agree as closely as possible with your laboratory or off-line reference method.
