STG-1 Seam Thickness Gauge: Precision and Efficiency in Can Manufacturing

AT2E’s STG-1 Seam Thickness Gauge is a specialized tool designed to precisely measure the thickness of can seams, playing a critical role in quality control within the can manufacturing industry. It offers fast, accurate measurements and is user-friendly, ensuring ease of operation.

Key Features

Precision and Accuracy:
With a measuring range of 0-5 mm and a resolution of 0.01 mm, the STG-1 provides highly accurate readings. It is compatible with a wide range of can sizes, making it versatile for various applications.

User-Friendly Design:
The gauge features an auto-centering function and an adjustable measuring point, allowing for easy and accurate positioning of cans during measurement. It can also connect to an SPC system or AT2E’s SeamCheck software, facilitating seamless data transfer and reducing the risk of manual recording errors.

Essential for Quality Control:
The STG-1 is essential for maintaining high standards in can manufacturing. Its precise and reliable measurements ensure that can seams meet industry standards.

Additional Advantages

Measure Angle Compensation: The gauge compensates for the angle of measurement, allowing cans to be easily auto-positioned in the center during the process.
Applicable to Various Cans: The device is suitable for different types of cans, ensuring broad applicability.
Accurate Seam Thickness Measurement: When using a double seam projector, seam structure may deform slightly after cutting, leading to deviations in measured thickness. The STG-1 eliminates this issue by providing an accurate, actual seam thickness measurement.

Connectivity for Data Accuracy

To prevent manual recording errors, the STG-1 can be connected to an SPC system or AT2E’s SeamCheck software using a DTB-1 Data Transporting Box and cable. This allows for efficient data transfer to the SPC system or SeamCheck software, ensuring accurate and reliable data management.
