MoistTech Corp., the world leader in moisture measurement and control, proudly showcases its IR3000-C series moisture sensors. These sensors leverage advanced Near Infrared (NIR) technology to deliver highly accurate and dependable analysis of moisture, coat weight, thickness, and temperature for nearly any product or raw material. Precise measurement is essential in paper, pulp, tissue, and corrugated production lines, where fluctuations in coat weight, moisture, thickness, and temperature can affect manufacturing efficiency. The IR3000-C sensors provide instant and continuous readings, greatly enhancing product quality, productivity, and energy efficiency throughout the converting process.

The MoistTech state-of-the-art near-infrared technology achieves unparalleled accuracy, delivering true, repeatable results year after year with little or no maintenance. Pre-calibrated in the factory with customer samples, the IR3000-C is guaranteed to never drift over time or need recalibration. Other technologies necessitate monthly or yearly calibrations that incur costs and result in downtime. Calibrations for up to 50 different products or product variations can be stored in each IR3000-C sensor.

Moreover, the accuracy of the IR3000-C is unaffected by most material variations such as height and color and by ambient temperature and lights, unlike competing technology. To ensure the most accurate moisture reading, MoistTech software automatically compensates for small gaps, inert material. foreign objects, and conveyor surfaces. The IR3000-C utilises cast aluminum enclosures to effectively disperse heat and ensure more accurate readings, in contrast to competing sensors that use polished steel which holds and creates heat.

The IR3000-C delivers an immediate return on investment by improving product quality and consistency, while also increasing productivity through reduced downtime and waste. Reliable moisture measurement and control guarantee that products maintain the precise moisture levels needed for optimal results. For instance, the moisture content in paper significantly influences its key properties, such as dimensions, flatness, conductivity, strength, and foldability. Ensuring the correct thickness or coat weight during production can be the difference between delivering a high-quality product to your customer or wasting time and materials.

Real-time, continuous moisture measurement enables operational personnel to make crucial, immediate adjustments to the production process. Furthermore, continuous NIR online moisture testing enables precise control of ovens and dryers to optimise the production process, resulting in substantial energy savings.

The IR3000-C sensor is a complete solution that is easy to install and integrate into existing production lines and does not require the purchase of any additional hardware or software. Its non-contact design minimizes contamination and maintenance, allowing for continuous operation without interfering with manufacturing processes.

The IR3000-C sensor precisely measures moisture, coat weight, thickness, and temperature in converting applications such as paper, films, foil, composite board, hot melts, glues, recycled paper, wax and vinyl coating, resin, and many more.
