Measurement instrument testing - Import export

The key to the successful optimisation of compressed-air systems is data. The METPOINT® range of measurement equipment with sensor technology and monitoring provides the data base for the evaluation and assurance of the compressed-air quality and for the identification of hidden cost drivers. Our measurement equipment can also be employed for the extension of plants and for the early elimination of malfunctions. With our sensor technology, you can capture residual oil content, residual humidity, volume flow and pressure – constantly, faultlessly and with exemplary precision. Our Monitoring and Data Logging makes all the relevant data accessible to you and your employees at a glance, ensuring the safety of your processes and the quality of your products. In this way you can take your energy management and quality control requirements to the next level of success.

The traversable straddle gauges are used for offline measurement. They are placed onto the roll and moved manually, thereby measuring the form of the rolls from crown edge to crown edge. They are characterised by a high measurement point density of 1 mm and a high repetition accuracy of ± 2 µm. With the evaluation software optimised over decades together with our customers for this application, curves can be pivoted and superimposed, centered and smoothed. The scope of supply also includes a panel PC.

The gauges from the VSL Series measure the form, diameter, roundness and eccentricity of the rolls during the grinding process with very high precision. Form, radial run-out and eccentricity are measures with a precision of ± 1 µm. If an interface is available, they communicate online with the controller of the roll grinding machine and thus enable even more cost-effective use of the grinding machine. With the appropriate configuration, they measure the height and lateral alignment of the roll in the grinding machine before grinding, often enabling the set-up time to be significantly reduced. Vollmer produces the automatic roll measuring gauges for both bench-mounted machines where the roll is moved along the grinding wheel and for support machines where the grinding wheel is moved along the rotating roll. Vollmer supplies the systems for a broad spectrum of roll diameters.
