In-line Complex Profile Measurement
and Monitoring, PROFILEMASTER®
Systems from ZUMBACH
As a pioneer of on-line measurement committed to extensive research and
development activities, ZUMBACH Electronics has continuously grown
as one of the world-wide leading manufacturers of in-line measuring and
control systems.
Top priority at ZUMBACH Electronics remains
to be customer relationships through local
presence combined with proven high-quality
products, services, personal consulting and
support. ZUMBACH’s PROFILEMASTER®
systems are developed from a core set of
proprietary mega pixel camera/laser modules
and software technologies. The application of
these technologies has been adapted to serve
specific measurement, monitoring and surface
flaw detection needs for; extruded plastic and
rubber tubes, hoses, profiles, wire and cable,
wood, plastic composites, steel rod, bar, profiles
and much more.
Depending on the customer application and
product dimension, ZUMBACH offers a full range
of PROFILEMASTER® gauges, including models for
small precision profiles starting from a dimension
of 0.5 mm (.02 in.), cold formed tubes and profiles
as well as medium size products, hot or cold, up to
dimensions of 600 mm (23.6 in.)
PROFILEMASTER® systems are available with 1 up
to 8 laser/camera modules measuring continuously
the cross section of the moving profile. A powerful
PC-based processor combines the captured line
images of the individual cameras to yield the
momentary cross-section of the profile. All relevant
dimensions such as width, height, angle and radius or
other geometric quantities are computed
to characterize the full cross-sectional
picture. An operator-friendly graphic
display of this data allows the product
to be monitored during the production.
The nominal values for the profile can
be directly imported from CAD design
files, which allows easy and problem free
configuration of the device. Changes in
speed and twist within normal limits
have no influence on the measurement
precision.
