DigiNip® sensor elements placed between two contacting rollers
Sensor Products Inc., Madison, NJ, introduced DigiNip®, a hand-held device that transforms the way nip measurements are obtained for small printing, coating, laminating and production rollers. DigiNip® measures the contact point between rollers at any section of a web or sheetfed process and readings are revealed immediately on the digital display. �Our goal was to provide printers and other web-based industries with a maintenance instrument that can economically diagnose planarity issues and fit in the palm of their hand,� says Jeffrey G. Stark, CEO of Sensor Products Inc. �DigiNip® represents the culmination of years of research in nip measurement.�
