APOS UV-NIR – Online layer thickness measurement of UV rolled paints with NIR sensors

APOS UV-NIR determines the layer thickness of the coating (application quantity) after the application

UV-NIR replaces sampling and manual weighing .
UV-NIR allows to reduce variations in coating thickness and to increase plant capacity.
UV-NIR determines the coating thickness objectively, regardless of personal assessment.
Determination directly after the application on the board moving past. Values available to the second.
Non-destructive, optical process. No damaged boards and no loss. No personnel expenses.

What is APOS UV-NIR?

APOS UV-NIR is a NIR-based online system for measuring the layer thickness of a panel after coating of the UV rolled paint.
UV-NIR replaces sampling and manual of the degree of coating thickness. Interfaces to Hymmen.

Why APOS UV-NIR?

All values are automatically saved with a time stamp. Clear traceability in the event of defects in downstream production. Increase in the production seep possible. Increase the production volume without reducing quality.

Benefits of NIR Measurement in UV Curing

Real-time monitoring: NIR spectroscopy enables continuous monitoring of the coating process, allowing manufacturers to detect deviations and make adjustments in real-time.
Non-destructive analysis: NIR spectroscopy does not require sample preparation or physical contact with the wood, preserving the integrity of the product.
Multi-parameter analysis: NIR spectroscopy can provide information on multiple parameters simultaneously, such as curing degree and coating thickness.
Process optimization: By analyzing NIR spectra, manufacturers can optimize curing parameters, reduce energy consumption, and minimize waste.
Quality control: NIR spectroscopy facilitates the identification of defects, such as incomplete curing or variations in coating thickness, enabling timely intervention and quality assurance.
