Weld Seam Detection System SND8 - NS9SC One sided weld seam detection on ferromagnetic and austenitic materials in coils Sensor For tool protection in front of cutting lines, presses, tube mills, and other metal forming machinery with automatic feed of material Filtering and analysis of sensor signal Fail - safe operation Visual display of signal level One constant magnetic field for all sheet thicknesses up to approx. 3 mm (0.12 in) Improved dynamic performance at variable surface speeds WELD SEAM DETECTION SYSTEM SND8 - NS9SC Application The automatic processing of coils and strips requires the dependable detection of weld seams. This applies to body shops in the automotive industry or the production of welded tubes and similar products. Weld seams that are not detected in the production process may lead to the destruction of dies and machine break down, faulty production and costly repairs. The Weld Seam Detector SND 8 has been specifically developed for such applications. The sensor NS9SC was specifically designed for butt welds in coils up to a sheet thickness of approx. 3 mm. Measuring Principle The sensor reacts to the magnetic properties of the materials. Weld seams lead to characteristic changes in the magnetic field. These changes are detected by the sensor and processed by the control unit resulting in a switch signal for the machine controls. Sophisticated methods of signal filtering and analysis are applied to discriminate between noise and the weld seam signal. 132.5 Sensor 92 30 x 30 Earth ground screw 55 6 24 M5 24 105 M8 26 6 M6 x 10 M8 17.5 17.5 180 64.5 M5 These two screws must not be used or removed ! 0.75 18 55 M5 57 20 57 165 43.5 101.5 Weight: 9200g 70 Space for movement of the plug 22 7 WELD SEAM DETECTION SYSTEM SND8 - NS9SC WELD SEAM DETECTOR SND 8 Fault Sensitivity 888 Signal Power ROLAND ELECTRONIC D - 75210 KELTERN Made in Germany Gerät Nr.
