MassaSonic® Sensors control a multitude of industrial equipment including printing presses, packaging machines, film extrusion dies, ink wells, and grease lubrication systems.  Many of the MassaSonic Sensors below are a good match for this industry.  The newest addition to our sensor platform is the MassaSonic FlatPack® – a desirable dual transducer sensor that features a slim housing that can fit into tight spaces where many sensors cannot. FlatPack also offers exceptionally close target detection as close as 1 inch!  FlatPack is great for conveyors, conveyor blockage, hoppers, and other automation and factory monitoring applications.  For example, distribution of solid material carried on a conveyor belt can exhibit lumping or piling that can jam a line – the FlatPack is ideal to detect undesirable lumping due to its MassaSonic dual transducers and broader beam angles.  Please contact a Massa Applications Specialist for more information.
