Description

The BF200 Blown Film Gauge is used to measure blown film thickness accurately on the production line.  It measures blown film with market leading precision and consistently holds calibration to deliver an accurate measurement even on the thinnest films.  It is also designed to be easy to use and durable in the sometimes harsh and dirty environments.

It is a great alternative to on-the-bubble gauging systems due to it’s lower cost and ability to give an absolute measurement.  

THE ADD-ON GAUGE THAT ADDS ON PROFITS
  • Reduce Scrap
  • Improve Quality
  • Enhance Training
  • Increase Productivity
  • Predictive Cleaning and Maintenance

SIGNIFICANT OPERATIONAL IMPROVEMENTS
Automatically provides full thickness information for operators, process engineers, and quality control personnel.

 
EXCLUSIVE FEATURES:
  • Provides a stable and reliable thickness measurement
  • Totally non-invasive – won’t disturb bubble and won’t mark film.
  • Comprehensive, easy-to-use BF200-PC Software package
  • High reliability, trouble-free design
  • Non-nuclear, Proprietary Capacitance Gauging Technology
  • Continuous gauge profile feedback
  • User-friendly, NIST Traceable calibration
  • Simple installation
  • Great for measuring thin films

ON-TARGET BLOWN FILM
The blown film process has many variables that affect film thickness. This complexity puts a large burden on the operator as he tries to achieve on-target thickness. SolveTech’s breakthrough technology has opened the door to significant improvements in your production. The BF200 Blown Film Gauging System is an affordable tool that combines reliable thickness readings with simple, trouble-free performance.

ENHANCE EXISTING EQUIPMENT
Adding a BF200 Blown Film Gauging System to an existing extruder is a good way to get the most out of your equipment. It will help you generate significant savings in time and material. Catch upsets or drifts that may occur and get operator feedback that enables quicker set-ups. This proves to be a cost-effective way to improve quality and reduce scrap.

RETURN ON INVESTMENT
  • Improve yield and reduce waste
  • Improve product quality
  • Improve customer confidence and gain new business

BF200 STANDARD SYSTEM INCLUDES:
BF200 Measurement Head: Non-invasive and non-nuclear. This precision head won’t disturb bubble or mark film. No worries about interfering with product or process. Provides outstanding reliability.
BF200 Gauge Control Unit: Provides power and signal conditioning for the Measurement Head, as well as secondary displays and controls for the operator.
PC-Compatible Gaugeware Software Package: Provides all of your thickness information needs. Includes information for process set-up, process monitoring, process troubleshooting/studies, and QC on a per roll basis (computer not included). This program is easy to use, yet offers tools to satisfy the most demanding user. Roll reports and printable screens give you the ability to show your customer the quality of each roll you produce for them.
Head Positioning System: Automatically positions the Measurement Head along the edge of the film. Periodically provides automatic re-standardization (auto-zero) of system

SYSTEM OPTIONS
Customize your BF200 with options such as Feedback Control, Encoder, or Analog Output.  We are willing to work with you to make a system that fits your blown film gauging needs.
