Fibreshape
Looking for a tester or quality control solution for wood, natural or man-made fibres?
The Fibreshape system
Fibreshape is a quality control and characterisation system for fibre applications. It is unique in its set of features, simple user interface, and rapid characterisation process, from the sample preparation to the printed certificate.
The measurement range is from 2 um to 30 cm fibre length.
Two kind of Fibreshape systems exist:
Your advantages:
- A very quick measurement method
- Easy and fast specimen/sample preparation
- Minimisation of possible operator errors
- Consistent and reproducible results
- Very attractive price/performance relation
- Reliable and rapid industrial method for quality inspection
Fibreshape features
Key features
- Quick measurement of fibre size and shape distribution
- Length measurement of short fibres (flock, linters and other fibres with a length/thickness ratio < 200)
- Fibre orientation measurement
- Characterisation of optical properties: colour and transparency
- Measurement of trash/dust content (consider mixtures for more details)
- Processing and storage of test data (for further external use and analysis)
- Integration for SAP or similar systems available
- Reliable and rapid industrial method for quality inspection
Fibres of a fineness range from 5 μm up to 5000 μm (5 mm) can be measured.
Simple user interface
To facilitate the fibre characterisation, the user interface exposes only 3 steps:
- Image acquisition
- Fibre recognition and measurement
- Analysis by means of statistical evaluation
Technical data
The Fibreshape System consists of:
- The Fibreshape software
- State-of-the-art image analysis computer running Microsoft Windows NT/2000/XP
- A slide and/or flatbed scanner certified for Fibreshape
- Standard office suite
