Gypsum board line showing width & edge sensor GMS1100 gypsum board measuring software operator screen

Overview

The GMS1100 is a non contact laser based system for measuring the full dimensional characteristics of plasterboard in-line during manufacture. The thickness profile, taper profile, width and edge profile of gypsum board are all measured and logged.

Operating principle

The thickness is measured by a pair of PreciCura sensors which use the principle of optical laser triangulation, the width and edge profile is measured with a pair of ProfiCura-2D that use the principle of 2D laser optical triangulation.

Application

  • Full dimensional measurement of plasterboard (gypsumboard or wallboard)
  • Thickness cross section profile on the wet end transfer
  • Board edge taper profile measurement
  • Continuous non contact in-line board width measurement
  • Board edge profile and edge angle
  • Thickness measurement on other board products including fire retardant board, insulation panels and foam products
