Plastic Extrusion
Bytewise manufactures plastic extrusions and the Profile360 family of on-line measurement systems for continuously monitoring the profile geometry of extruded plastic profiles. Profile360 takes a profile scan, matches it to a design template, then displays the profile on an optical comparator screen along with key measurement parameters. Profile360 is used on extruder lines after cooling as a continuous quality checking tool to assure that key dimensions remain centered and within control limits. The real-time monitor provides an alarm to alert the operator to any off-spec condition so that machine corrections can be made.

Profile360 Measurement System has been adopted by auto side-body molding makers where tolerances are challenging, and the cost of adjustments for off-spec products is very high.
Profile360 is an attractive investment where plastic extrusion is challenged by high dimensional precision, high material costs, high scrap rates, or high adjustment costs.
