Wall Thickness Monitoring System

Wall Thickness Monitoring System

The wall thickness monitoring system is designed to operate in-line as a production control tool.  The system inspects for wall thickness variations as the tube moves linearly through the test station.  It automatically calculates eccentricity and continuously takes absolute thickness measurements, with the minimum thickness reading, maximum thickness reading, average thickness reading, and standard deviation of the readings calculated.
