Thread, body & thickness gauge
Drinktec Torus Measurement Systems, Hall A4 – Stand 146 Torus Measurement Systems will be exhibiting a fully automated B302 Thread, Body & Thickness gauge for plastic bottles and preforms which will incorporate the use of a robot to automatically load.
Torus’ newly developed B302 can be supplied as a semi-automatic manually loaded or robot automated system and utilises the most recent camera and lighting technology with incorporated start of thread alignment routines, removing operator influence from the neck finish measurement. Torus’ automated B302 TBT offers improved measurement repeatability and absolute thickness capability by using the latest high resolution sensing technologies, allowing features such as base clearance, thread, body & height dimensions to be taken without any operator influence. The intelligent robot loader removes the need for time-consuming, manual processes and consequently improves efficiency. As with all Torus gauges, the B302 is fully traceable to UKAS standards and is supplied with calibrated masters which are measured in Torus’ own accredited laboratory.
