MESACON Messelektronik GmbH Dresden

Depending on application and requirements Mesacon designes, developes and manufactures measuring systems for thickness measurement. We provide measuring systems for simple thickness measurement (centre line measurement), for traversing profile measurement up to complex Multi Channel Profile gauges including Flatness-, width and speed measurement.

For the application in painting and galvanizing lines MESACON Messelektronik supplies layer thickness gauges based on Isotope backscattering or X-ray fluorescence principle.

Matched to your specific operational conditions respectively your needs we offer you modular measuring systems as overall design as well as partial solution. Of course we develop and realize software and also hardware applications for existing installations, too.

For the determination of thickness profiles all measuring systems can be executed as traversing systems. At this application the complete sensor or the C-frame is moving continuously over the whole strip width. The measuring system decreed of different traversing programms which the customer can adapt.

In addition to the profile thickness data’s the crown and wedge values can be calculated with this traversing system.

The traversing profile measurement is installed starting from the hot rolling mill to the inspection lines of the cold rolling mills. For close loop applications the traversing measurement will be combined with a centre line measurement. Alternativ the measuring system can be delivered as a three point gauge. At this the fixed centre line measurement is combined with adjustable edge area measuring points.

Particularly at the exit of hot rolling mills customers have high demands on the thickness profile gauges. In contrast to the traversing systems MESACON Multi channel systems record all 8 ms the complete thicknesses cross profile. Supplemented with temperature and Laser optical flatness and width measurement all profile relevant data’s are permanent available for the mill controlling. In addition to the normal thickness control it is possible to realize the flatness and wedge control..

Compared with the traversing gauges the mechanical maintenance effort is minimized. The usage of multi channel Ionization chambers in contrast to Scintillation detectors increases the availability and reliability of the system and reduces the requirements to the environmental conditions of the measuring system.
