Thermo Scientific technology allows you to meet the specialty requirements for nonwoven manufacturing, whether the process is spunbond, spunlace, airlaid, carded, meltblown or needlepunch. Our measurement and control systems measure the basis weight or thickness of nonwoven materials, ensuring efficient production of uniform, reliable, functional products.
Rubber calendering is a complex process that requires a modular measurement and control strategy that can be configured to almost any calender. Thermo Scientific measurement and control systems provide accurate, reliable measurement of the basis weight or thickness of the materials used in rubber tire manufacture including, gum, fabric and wire.
