AIS Announces the Release of Gemini FWM-X

05/25/2019; AIS is excited to announce the release of our patent-pending full-width measurement device, the Gemini FWM-X. This unit provides a non-contacting, non-scanning weight per unit area measurement of the target material. The measurement is then displayed on our standard HMI, providing both real-time measurement information and process control. This eliminates the typical inherent delays associated with scanning systems, providing reductions of off-spec material. Additionally, since the unit measures 100% of the web, the Gemini can easily detect product and/or process defects. The defect "triggers" are configured thru the HMI and can be based on size, density, or both size and density. In this manner, the exact location of the defect can be identified and flagged. Imagine the level of product measurement and quality assurance that only the Gemini can provide. For more information, please contact a member of our sales staff.

The Nano is the most compact, full-functioning sensor on the market that includes options for C1D1 installations.

Message From The President - 5th Specialty Films & Flexible Packaging Flobal Summit

2016 September 21st and 22nd, Mumbai, INDIA; Thank you to all of those who helped make the event a wonderful experience. The presenters were very enlightening, and it was nice to meet some of the worlds leaders in the plastics industry. India is poised for tremendous growth throughout the foreseeable future. This growth will require a concerted effort between suppliers, machine builders and manufacturers. As such, our sales and support team in Mumbai is ready to answer the call by providing the gauging and service solutions the industry needs.

Of special mention, during the summit one presenter challenged us all to be innovative. In summary, he indicated that all too often, we find ourselves spending our time copying the competition instead of innovating.  For that reason, we often miss the mark in our opportunity to provide real solutions to the needs of our customers. With that in mind, we came away from the event with a clear objective for the future and look forward to unvieling our innovative solutions soon.  In the meantime, we are going to continue our efforts to reach out to our customers, listen to their needs, and provide the best solutions possible.  

 

This is who we are, and this is why we do what we do.
