Nonwoven hygiene products

KARWEB NONWOVENS, based in Turkey, is one of the big global players in the sector of hygiene products with more than 270 product types made from nonwoven fabric. They export 80 percent of our production to 36 countries, like America, England and Italy. At their Spunlace plant, they can produce protective products against bacterial due to sophisticated technologies like Ozone Threatment and UV systems.

In the quality control process, which is of great importance in the hygiene sector, they rely upon the quality control system Qualiscan QMS-12 from Mahlo.  With instant quality detection, they can continuously control the correct component mixture of their fibre products.

A traversing scanner (o-frame) of type Webpro M with two sensors for simultaneous measurement is used for the task. The infrared sensor Infralot IMF detects the moisture. The Gravimat DFI beta sensor measures the basis weight.

    Measuring frames

    Universal application
    The measuring frame traverses the sensors on-line across the whole product width and provides a cross-machine direction profile of basis weight, thickness or moisture on the display console that is a crosssection of the manufactured product.

    One or more different measuring frames can be connected to a Qualiscan QMS system. Connection is made via a normal network cable, a standard 230/115 V source supplies the power.

    Network structure

    The Qualiscan QMS is a modular system consisting of multiple measuring sensors and traversing frames acting as intelligent nodes on a network. The individual components are linked through a normal Ethernet cable as found in any office for networking multiple PCs. The network structure facilitates the integration of additional measurement sensors and scanners in the future.
