Applications
Purpose：
CanNeed-ACTG-2000 is a fully Automatic Optical Coating Thickness Gauge with unattended mode, it adopts non-contact optical measurement technology to measure the thickness and weight of dry film. It is a standard equipment in the canmaking industry to realize the continuous and efficient automatic inspection on the sample cans.
Compatible with straight-wall cans and finished cans. No changing parts are required for different can sizes in can heights and diameters.
Technology Principle：
Appearance of Light Interference Theory: in the overlap area of 2 beams, some section strengthens and light blotch appears; some section weakens and dark blotch appears. Strengthening section is the same as the weakening section, which is the phenomenon of light blotch alternating with dark blotch. The condition is the same when 2 beams are with same frequency, or difference being constant. 2 beams, which can produce interference, are called coherent wave. The 2 light sources are called coherent source. Coherent source can be acquired by dividing one light into 2 beams.
Measuring Process:
1. Switch on the PC, open ACTG-2000 software, establish the testing template of sample cans to be tested: for example, as sample 202/211/330, input and complete the specific parameters of the can type in the setting interface.
2. Place sample cans to the waiting channel and click the START button on the software interface, the tester will run self-calibration before testing.
3. After self-calibration, the tester will run testing automatically, then the tested data will be saved automatically, all sample cans will be tested one by one.
4. Sample cans will be collected automatically after testing.
Advantages
1,Auto measurement in all process saving time and cost of HR, avoiding personal error
2,Multi-channel sampling device, can measure various cans at one time.
3,Apply to sample cans with different diameters and heights. Quick switching can and no changing parts required for different can sizes.
4,Self-calibration, can customize the calibration time and the number of calibration points.
5,Adopts non-contact optical measuring technology,the inner and outer can body and neck, as well as the bottom arch position of the designated point of the film thickness and weight can be measured.
6,Adopt world-class advanced and precise sensor with outstanding accuracy and repeatability.
7,Effective, quick and accurate measurement, improving inspection efficiency.
8,Secure, durable, easy operation and maintenance.
9,Assemble with HD camera for convenient after sale service via remote connection.
10,Test result can be sent to SPC system.
11,Database management software for easy data query and statistics.
12,Can review single measure result after test for various cans, Auto calculate the average, maximum and minimum.
13,Data can be stored to Excel form.
14,Various statistics reports.
15,User-defined report format, suitable for style and format of enterprises.
