They have been dedicated to enhancing the quality of their products, ensuring that the thickness of all iron sheets falls within specified ranges.

Customer Background
The customer company is a manufacturer specializing in metal products, primarily producing various iron sheets and metal components. Their products are widely used in the fields of construction, automotive manufacturing, and mechanical processing. They have been dedicated to enhancing the quality of their products, ensuring that the thickness of all iron sheets falls within specified ranges.
Challenge:
In the process of manufacturing iron sheets, they face the challenge of ensuring the precise thickness of each sheet. Even minor deviations can lead to products not meeting specifications, affecting quality and customer satisfaction.
Application of Optical Sensors in Iron Sheet Thickness Measurement
Solution:
They introduced DADISICK optical sensor technology to address this challenge. They chose the GFL-Z series high-precision optical sensors, known for their outstanding measurement accuracy and stability. These sensors were integrated into the iron sheet manufacturing production line for real-time thickness measurement.
Operation:
These optical sensors measure the thickness of iron sheets by emitting a light beam and measuring the time it takes for the beam to be reflected. The sensors can perform multiple measurements within milliseconds, providing highly precise data. Sensor data is compared to manufacturing specifications, and if any deviations are detected, an alert is triggered.
Results:
After introducing optical sensors, the customer achieved significant results. They could monitor the thickness of iron sheets in real-time, identify any potential issues, and take corrective actions to ensure that products fall within the specified thickness range. This not only improved product quality but also reduced the rate of defective products and maintenance costs.
Conclusion
The successful case of the DADISICK customer demonstrates the potential of optical sensors in enhancing product quality and flatness in the manufacturing process. 

Through real-time monitoring and precise measurements, manufacturers can ensure their products meet specifications, enhance customer satisfaction, and reduce the risk of non-compliant products. Optical sensor technology brings greater efficiency and quality standards to the manufacturing industry.
