What is a grammage scanner and how does it work?
A grammage scanner is an industrial measurement system that continuously monitors the basis weight (mass per unit area) of web materials during production. Hammer-IMS grammage scanners use M-Ray millimeter wave technology to measure material weight contactlessly, without radiation. The electromagnetic waves penetrate the material and provide real-time measurements at rates up to 3 kHz, enabling instant quality control feedback.
