About TOMCAT 2
Traditionally, it has been necessary to wait 30-45 mins for a hot bottle to cool sufficiently for the coating thickness to be tested in the lab. The problem with this is if there any problems picked up on, all containers produced during this time may need to be rejected, this is where Rondot’s TOMCAT 2 steps in! it is able to measure the coating thickness of all areas of a hot bottle straight off the production line regardless of colour and glass thickness to give an instant indication of any coating related issues allowing amendments to be made quickly. Readouts are displayed on the inbuilt screen and are colour coded depending on tolerance. It also has the ability to store results to be downloaded to a spread sheet for reference, this function can be very useful during start up following job changes / down time.
