Productspecifications
The Guardian-HD supports process optimization by accurately measuring moisture and coating thickness, providing a complete zoned web profile of narrow or wide webs. Reduce start-up times and waste by visually identifying production inefficiencies for quick return on investment. Intuitive graphical displays provide critical production insight for rapid identification of out of spec product.
Reliable performance for challenging converting applications
The new Guardian-HD Web Profiling System is designed specifically for reliable operation in the challenging conditions found in paper and converting processes with a sealed industrial frame and new powerful linear actuator.
Moisture and coat weight measurements can be made on many substrates including paper, film, foil, textiles, release liners, tags, tapes and labels. The Guardian-HD Web Profiling System is commonly used in the following applications:

Guardian-HD systems are accurate, fast, reliable & low maintenance. They provide a non-contact, non-destructive on-line measurement and are unaffected by relative humidity, changes in product temperature, ambient light and temperature. Guardian-HD Near Infrared (NIR) Systems have many other benefits and advantages:
-
- Minimize edge curl and lay flat issues
- Easily connect to closed loop control systems or local alarms
- Decrease manual start-up times by up to 20% by eliminating the need for time consuming lab testing and adjustments
- Unlike X-ray systems, NIR technology does not present an employee health hazard
- Easy calibration, operation & standardization
