Sonycscan
Ultrasonic Gauging System
The SONYCSCAN is based on the ultrasonic adsorption measurement method to measure the thickness, usually shown in μm or in g/m2.
A custom Ultrasonic source is situated in a housing, while another housing contains the receiver and is positioned opposite the transmitter at a set distance (Gap). Using a series of special software procedures that measure the material’s wave travel times and signal attenuation levels, compensating the measurements for thermal drifts and local humidity variations, the system is able to detect the thickness/weight of the material.
