How does a weight sensor work?
Hammer-IMS basis-weight sensors use M-Ray millimeter wave technology to measure material weight and thickness contactlessly. The sensor emits electromagnetic waves that penetrate the material, analyzing reflection patterns to calculate precise basis-weight measurements. This non-destructive method works across all material colors and compositions, providing real-time data at multiple kHz rates for dynamic production environments without requiring physical contact or nuclear radiation.
