                            Z341 BENCH TOP BEVERAGE CAN COATING ANALYSER

                            The Z341 Manual Coating Analyser has been developed to give fast and accurate measurement of the internal lacquer, sprayed during today’s 2 piece can manufacturing process

                            Specifications

                            By cutting the can to give suitable access, the dome area of the can is able to be checked by the system.

                            No “lacquer panels” are required for calibration and measurement data can be exported via on board USB or LAN ports to your factory data acquisition systems where required.

                                  Z334 MANUAL BENCH TOP CUP HEIGHT EARRING GAUGE

                                  The Z334 is a bench-top system for cup height analysis.

                                  Specifications

                                  Each cup to be inspected is manually loaded into the gauge and the measurement cycle is initiated via the PC running the TMS GaugeXplorer measurement and machine control software. Setup screens allow the operator to enter traceability information and select the number of samples and heads from which data is to be collected.

                                  Once the component has been measured, the operator may visually accept or reject the software’s calculated ‘peaks’ and ‘troughs’, which will be used in the Earring calculations.
