Simple online thickness measurement controller offers high accuracy
Micro-Epsilon has developed a two-channel synchronous controller (using two synchronous measurement sensors) for the accurate measurement of thickness in production and quality control. The CSP 301 is the first two-channel display controller to offer true, synchronous capability, which means it takes measurements and displays the results simultaneously.
