Maximize Production and Profits
Optimize energy and resources while maximizing production and profits with GreCon's full line of Quality Assurance Measuring Systems. On-line measuring systems allow for immediate adjustments to production and assured quality control. Rejects are reduced, profits are increased, and customer satisfaction is guaranteed.
Online Bond Analyzer UPU 2000 and UPU 3000
Panel defects are significantly reduced while simultaneously shortening press times, eliminating rejects and waste, and providing verifiable quality control documentation to the customer.
On-line defect monitoring allows for immediate adjustments to production as well as trend analysis which can be used to optimize production of pressing cycles.
Online Thickness Gauge DMR 2000 and DMR 3000
Raw material usage, rejects, and waste can be reduced while providing verifiable quality control documentation to the customer.
Determine exact thickness dimensions on-line for immediate adjustments to production.
The DMR contact roller measurement system is suitable for severe industrial surroundings and measurement of hard surface and solid sheet products.
Inline Moisture Meters IR 5000 and MWF 3000
For optimum product quality, the continuous control of the chip or fiber moisture is imperative.
GreCon in-line moisture analyzers are used to monitor material moisture upstream and downstream of the dryers or in the area of control of the material moisture after blender and at the forming station ensures optimum quality output.
available in Infrared and Microwave models.
Online Mat Scanner DIEFFENSOR
With high resolution over the entire panelboard mat, the DIEFFENSOR system determines the weight per unit area and material distribution of fiber, chip or OSB mat. Exact graphical and numeric representations enable the operator to adjust the forming process to achieve consistent panel quality control while the use of material and energy is optimized.
Online Weight Per Unit Area Gauges BWQ 3000 and BWS 3000
On-line, traversing measuring detects uneven spreading and provides accurate profile data for monitoring of tolerance deviance and reduction of raw material usage.
The BWQ cross profile scanning of the mat after forming provides data on the mat properties prior to the pressing process.
Stationary BW4 Gauge at the forming station is also available
Online Raw Density Profile Gauge StenOgraph
determines the raw density profile directly after continuous presses. Thus, the operator is able to rectify the raw density profile and the related product features of MDF and particleboard during the pressing process. The result is an increased panel quality while material and energy costs are reduced.
Online Plug-Up Detection
Monitor material flow and receive early warning of plugging or bridging conditions within silos and other storage containers.
When certain types of material are collected in cyclonic separators, they will bridge in the cone above the rotary valves. This bridge can eventually clog the cyclone and the material could vent to the outside air.
Online Surface Inspection System Superscan
The SUPERSCAN system objectively inspects 100 percent of the press size wood based panels online at full production speed.
Due to ever increasing production speeds and new press technologies, the demands on inspections of the panel surface are also increasing.
Laboratory Measuring Systems
GreCon Laboratory Raw Density Analyzer DA-X offers a comfortable way to measure density profiles.
GreCon Laboratory Microwave Moisture Meter Analyzer MWF 3000LM provides accurate mositrue measurements.
GreCon Laboratory Mechanical Strength Tester Labrod assesses the mechanical features of wood based panels.
