This short video shows a few simple experiments explaining why M-Ray technology is a perfect fit for inline coating weight measuring. Opaque materials such as bariumsulphate, titaniumdioxide or calciumcarbonate do not limit the applicability of the technology. M-Ray technology therefor has a significant advantage compared to X-Ray technologies.

Hammer-IMS will tour across exhibitions in Europe in Winter & Spring 2019.

Hammer-IMS has successfully delivered a contactless and clean device for measuring the basis-weight of felts and woven products to Heimbach. The milestone of successful application of Hammer-IMS’s M-Ray technology in the specific application domain of Heimbach consolidates the position of non-nuclear and non-radioactive gauges in the nonwoven and textile sector.

Hammer-IMS has developed a new range of C-frames for inline measuring tasks. The C-frame technology enables application of one ore more M-Ray measuring heads. C-frames are more flexible compared to O-frames and work on a broad range of production line widths. The high stand-off distance of our C-frame systems gives a new dimension to the concept of contactless measuring, even for very thick materials exceeding multiple centimeters.

Last month, Bart Goossens took on the role of senior R&D engineer. Building on experience with Option, Barco and Philips, he brings valuable engineering skills on hardware and software levels. Bart will contribute in optimizing the industrialization for the full range of innovative Hammer-IMS systems.

Hammer-IMS has participated in a range of events in Rome, Chemnitz and Cologne. 

After completing our tour across Germany, Hammer-IMS exhibits on EDANA in Rome and mtex+ in Chemnitz. At the same time, CEO Noël Deferm speaks on the Chemnitzer Textil Tagung.

Hammer-IMS supports its extended reach in fabrics and nonwovens markets by playing an active role on events in Rome, Chemnitz and Cannes. 

French nonwoven producer uses a clean Marveloc-CURTAIN for inline basis-weight quality control of felts & nonwovens

Hammer-IMS kindly invites you to the upcoming Belgian event (co-organized by Hammer-IMS) where Technical and Product Manager Tom Redant will speak. The event includes short presentations related to innovative measuring techniques for coatings and a visit of the Hammer-IMS facilities.

Our new CURTAIN integrates a next-generation up to 4.5 meter mechanical frame equipped with multiple sensors based on our clean M-Ray based measurement technology. The solution is developed to perform 24/7 quality control on inline production of plastic films, nonwovens, fabrics, etc. The new Marveloc-CURTAIN solution entails product improvements covering proprietary mechanical frame, M-Ray sensors, and Connectivity software.

Let’s meet Robin Michiels, our new sales and business developer. His experience gained at ABB, Fabricom and Elia enables him to further develop Hammer-IMS sales operations across Europe. Welcome Robin! He introduces himself in the interview below.
