Wax Coating & Moisture

Superior Moisture Control

Wax coating is often applied to a wide variety of products. Consequently, having the correct amount of wax or the presence of wax is critical during the manufacturing process.

Our sensor calibrations, measurement wavelengths, algorithms and sensor optical requirements are pre-set at the factory. Typical accuracy is about ±0.1% gsm. Typical analog ranges are from 2-60 gsm. Stability on certain applications is within 0.002 gsm. The outputs can be adjusted to optimize PLC or recording requirements.

non-contact

Our equipment never comes into contact with the product, allowing for less waste

zero drift

Our sensors are guaranteed not to drift over time – which saves time and money

closed loop

Create a closed-loop process by tying a moisture sensor into your PLC. Full control over the line!

no recalibrations

We’ve mastered the art of moisture sensors – your unit will never need to be recalibrated for the same product twice!

What is the Solution?

We’ve combined our decades of experience and knowledge with feedback from our industry partners to create a moisture sensor capable of taking instant, non-contact measurements of moisture, temperature, and other vital levels with the utmost accuracy. When it comes to moisture sensors, the IR-3000 is the most advanced system available.

Installation Points

By installing the IR-3000 Wax Coating Sensor after the coating head, a manufacturer can continuously monitor the process either manually or automatically. The sensor can also interface with the plant wide network system, as well as providing digital reading at the coating station.
