Cigarettes control with Metrix OD
Save costs and ensure the continuity of product quality !
During their production it is very important to manage product profitability through a consistent tobacco fill :
- To protect product quality and smoking experience by reducing breakage, air pockets and loose filters through a consistent and compact tobacco fill
- To identify the most efficient and cost-effective product control
METRIX OD is an outer diameter control solution well-adapted to controlling cigarette diameters – an indicator of tobacco fill. It is equipped with :
- A contactless, pneumo-electronic transducer that therefore doesn’t damage the rod
– In which the rod being manufactured can “flow”
– Able to measure with a 5 µm accuracy - Software for recording and analyzing measured diameters, and for drift detection alerts
Software can dynamically correct manufacturing parameters!
YOUR MAIN BENEFITS
QUALITY & PROFITABILITY
The control solution is online and :
• Is signficantly faster than manual control
• Is as close as possible to the manufacturing process so able to detect drift very early
• Quickly and dynamically corrects process parameters
The solution therefore improves profitability by quickly detecting and correcting for any off-spec cigarette production.
