Monitor the pressure as well as Height while using Rotary Die

Wed Jul 25, 2018 7:03 am

Hello, I am kind of much new to the solution I am expecting to create with rotatory die whose surface is fixed but need to move the upper surface up or down for adjusting it with idea as per Die specification and these measurements are sometimes rough which leads to some defects, I want to monitor the pressure system and height between the rotatory die and material but to be very honest, I used raspberry pi just for temperature testing few months back but never able to check this complexity for pressure as well as height analysis, After google out with some sensors recommendation I bought barometric sensor https://store.ncd.io/product/hp203b-pre ... ni-module/ which I think must be useful but still need a lot of suggestions to implement it, any kind leads for creating these solution will be very helpful

Are you sure that barometric sensor are what you need? These measure air pressure..

I'm not sure what a rotary die is but a quick google seems to show a machine with two rollers. Would a strain gauge be more appropriate for measuring the pressure between the two rollers?
