Repeat Length Measurement System
Measure, Monitor & Report on Repeat Length 

Applications:
Materials that are susceptible to stretching,
web slippage or simply tight tolerance repeats

Capabilities:
Works on any size repeat
Accurate to .0020" or better
Speeds up to 1000 meters/min.
Software captures real time data


How the systems works:

1.  Using the keypad on the Console, enter the repeat length you require 
     and either a % variance or specific min/max limits 
2.  Install a scanner to detect the registration mark on the material being
     inspected
3.  An encoder (installed on a shaft, or used with a measuring wheel)
     measures web length
4.  The Console captures the data from both scanner and encoder
     and compares the data to your in-tolerance settings
5   Real time measurement data is displayed on the console
6.  The display indicates if current measurements are in or out of 
     specification and a red light alerts operators if corrective action is needed 
7.  Real-time data is captured by the Console and transferred to a computer 
     for record keeping, analysis, and reporting  

System Capabilities:

 - Flexible enough to handle any sized repeat 
 - Fast enough to take measurements at speeds of 1000 meters/minute or faster
 - Accurate to .0020" or finer depending on installation parameters
 - Dimensionless system makes it simple to handle metric or imperial measures
   and use any unit of measure you desire
 - Each repeat length measurement is given a sequence number for reference
 - Set console to display the repeat  length or any desired average of repeats
 - PC software included with system (supports Windows 7 or Windows XP)

Other Console and System Features:

 - Console has 16 digit keypad with 2 line data display 
 - Operator indicator lights on Console illuminate green when 
    material is in spec., red when out of spec.
 - 110 volt system with 3 prong line cord std.  (220VAC avail.)
 - RS232 interface connects System Console to PC
 - Scanning Devices software captures job and process data 
 - 15 to 50’ scanner and encoder cables available
 - External Signal Light powered from Console

Multiple Scanning Options to fit your needs: 

 - General purpose print mark scanner for most scanning situations 
 - Special purpose color contrast scanner for low contrast marks
 - Fiber optic scanners for small marks and hard to reach places
