Serel MENU STRC - Introduction PRODUCTS 01 STRC In-line and continuous measurement of your textile cloth. INTRODUCTION DESCRIPTION KEY POINTS OPERATION TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS OPTIONS Description 02 Checking the quality of textile products at line output The STRC (Serel Travelling Regularity Control) has been designed to continuously measure the transverse and longitudinal regularity of a textile (or other) product. It enables the checking of fine and light cloths as well as dense and thick products. The X-ray generator is chosen for this particular application in order to ensure optimal levels of accuracy. Points Clés 03 No radioactivity The system uses an X-ray generator and not a radioactive source. Therefore, it is totally safe when it is switched off. Compton scattering By combining the measurements of absorption and Compton scattering, the STRC makes it possible to measure highly heterogeneous blends of fibers such as glass and PP fibers. Indeed, this method is sensitive to both light and heavy materials in a blend. Operation 04 Operation The measurement is carried out on a vertical basis across the cloth by an X-ray transceiver on a carriage that continuously moves from one extreme of the cloth to the other extreme. The measured values are then collected and displayed in the form of a curve on the control PC and from there are saved for statistical analysis and quality control. Moreover, the system is capable of generating a series of visual and/or audible alarms based on client criteria. In addition, it can even stop the line if there is a serious bias detected.

Similar to the measurement of density, the measurement of thickness is continuous across the entire width of the cloth and it is displayed in the form of curves on the monitoring PC. ENTRY AND/OR OUTPUT ROLLERS Height adjustable rollers for the travelling bridge are available as an option for integration into an existing production line. They can be matched accordingly in order to suit the most efficient progress of the textile. CLOSED LOOP The STRC enables the automatic regulation of the quantity of material that enters the card in order to attain the target weight at the end of the line. However, this option is only available if the automatic operation of the STRC is coupled to the regulation of density at the entry to the card (SLDC). The STRC can also be connected to a PC of any kind via a Profinet or Profibus connection that permits the transfer of composite curves and curves which display information regarding the status of the STRC. REMOTE MAINTENANCE The presence of the PC or STRC enable Serel’s engineers to access equipment in record time and thereby minimize any production downtime.
