Use the BGUIDE® to control the applied layer of cushion gum. Without weighing– cutting or destroying,
the BGUIDE® is able to precision measure the thickness of the applied layer of cushion gum to within +/- 0.0 mm!
How?
1. |
Use the BGUIDE® to measure the minimum distance between the surface and the steel-belt during a 360º rotation of the casing, before and after application of cushion gum. |
2. |
Compare the 2 values and you will know exactly how thick a layer you have applied. |
3. |
Use this information to make necessary corrections to your set-up. |
4. |
Start saving. |

Are you aware that by “fine tuning” the applied layer of cushion gum by just 0.2 mm, you will save 180 grams per casing (315/80 x 22.5).
• |
180 grams less per casing can save you
€ 1.05 per casing! |
• |
60 casings per day can save you
€ 63.00 per day! |
• |
12,000 casings per year can save you
€ 12,600 per year! |
