Meeting the Special Requirements for On-Line Basis Weight Measurement of Light Weight Nonwoven Fabrics, 1992 Nonwovens Conference Proceedings
Fabric downgauging has reduced the cost per square meter of nonwoven rollgoods, while it has increased the challenge to maintain fabric quality and performance. On-line basis weight measurement systems must meet special requirements for holding products and processes within tighter tolerances. This paper describes the specialized technology needed to make on-line basis weight measurements practical for the production of light weight nonwoven fabrics.
