EASYLOG - Wireless Temperature Measurement System
From Laboratory Systems
Close to the heart of the action in the hot press: GreCon added EASYLOG to the CONTILOG product family to measure gas pressure and temperature. This smaller chip measures the temperature of wood based panels (MDF, particleboard, OSB) during hot pressing.A wireless sensor, 2.5 mm flat, is placed in a wood based mat as a so-called lost component and runs through the hot press to measure the temperature for the entire pressing procedure. After leaving the press, the measured data is wirelessly read out with a reader and transferred to a PC for evaluation using a USB stick.
The mat temperature of any position within the pre...
The mat temperature of any position within the press provides information on the curing of the resin in the mat. The press program for the individual panel types can be optimised to reach a core layer temperature of 100 °C as soon as possible.
The EASYLOG is ideal for continuous monitoring of the cooling down conduct in the star cooler, the temperature development in the panel stack or further subsequent process steps, such as coating
Optimise your pressing process by measuring the development of the mat temperature in any position within your press. The EASYLOG is a wireless sensor with which the temperature of the mat is recorded during pressing. Minimum panel thicknesses from 10 mm. The temperature measurement provides information on the curing of the resin in the mat and enables you to optimise the press program for your individual recipes. Reach a core layer temperature of 100 °C as soon as possible! Immediately detect the effects of optimisation measures on the quality of your products. The effects of changes in surface or core layer moisture, glue structure, particle size, raw density and other parameters can be immediately checked. Even the influence by surface spraying, preheating systems, transport speeds and other upstream processes quickly become apparent.
The temperature can also be measured in downstream processes, such as cooling, conditioning, sanding and coating, by using long-life batteries and programmable measuring phases. Reduce the start-up time of your press by checking the heat transfer to the core layer of your products in any position. Control the data loggers intuitively using “touch“ with a tablet PC. The tablet PC can be used for both EASYLOG and CONTILOG data loggers. After leaving the press, the measured data is wirelessly read out with a reader. The data can be transferred to a PC for evaluation using a USB stick.
