Offline Profilometer
Lab Sample Profile Gauge

Cross-width profile scanning of cut strip samples. Internal scanning X-ray and laser sensors traverse a stationary sample inside an O-frame, producing high-resolution thickness profiles for the QC lab: crown, wedge, edge drop and average thickness.

HOW IT WORKS

Offline scanning, end to end

01

Load the sample

A cut sheet or strip sample is placed in the O-frame and remains stationary throughout the measurement.

02

Sensors traverse the width

Precision linear slides carry the scanning X-ray and laser sensors across the full sample width on a servo drive, with internal cable handling.

03

Profile is computed

The GHF X-ray source and xenon ion chamber detector resolve thickness at each position; compensation utilities correct the reading before it is logged.

04

Report in Profile Grapher

Crown, wedge, edge drop and average thickness are calculated and archived per sample or coil ID, with reports built to your QC documentation requirements.
