The Profilemaster ® provides accurate measurements for all profiles and pipes including steel, plastic and rubber

Accurate solutions for complex non-contact tube and profile measurement ZUMBACH Electronic, which

• Real-time monitoring of complex profiles – continuous monitoring and measuring of product geometry which alerts the operator when the product is out of tolerance. • Highly accurate measurements – reliable operation that detects process problems at an early stage, leading to increased product quality and reduced scrap. The Profilemaster ® PMM range is available in five models covering a minimum product diameter of 2mm up to 144mm. The Profilemaster ® SPS range is available in four models covering a minimum product diameter of 5mm (SPS 50-S4 System) up to 600mm.

eliminates the need for subsequent manual measurements. Thanks to its unique concept, precise and reliable measurements are guaranteed for virtually any shape, regardless of torsion. An advanced software toolbox allows for measurements of angles, widths, depths, thicknesses, radii, diameters, distances or deviation from the nominal value. Additionally, profile shapes can be easily imported using existing DXF files. Key features of the Profilemaster ® range include: • The use of the Profilemaster ® system is practically unlimited due to the numerous model versions, with different protective housings that allow it to be implemented in a wide range of applications.

offers non-contact measuring tech- nologies, manufactures an in-line profile measurement system called Profilemaster ® that offers on-line monitoring of complex profiles. Designed to improve product quality through detecting process problems at an early stage, the Profilemaster ® provides accurate measurements for all profiles and pipes including steel, plastic, rubber and other materials. Profilemaster ® utilises a measuring principle based on 2D laser triangulation where four (or more) lasers illuminate the product surface and associated matrix cameras capture the light contour from an oblique angle. The Profilemaster ® software combines the captured segments into an orthogonal profile cross-section and
