Hole detection

PROBLEM

Materials intended for use as waterproof membrane can suffer with potential damage or defects during production. Identifying this damage is difficult and made harder when producing very wide material widths. 

SOLUTION

As the material passes over a grounded roller, a static charge is applied to the membrane. Any weakness in the material thickness can result in a spark being generated. The Meech generator powering a model 993 bar will detect this discharge.  

A signal can be output to the PLC which can record the number of material flaws, and can signal an inkjet marker to show the location of the problem on the material for later correction.
