Beta LaserMike Webinar - Understanding Laser Measurement


Global competition is fierce and it’s placing increasing market demands on converters to optimize productivity, improve quality control, and reduce waste to remain economically competitive. A main driver to achieving this goal is the ability for manufacturers to accurately measure the length and speed of materials being produced.
Beta LaserMike’s LaserSpeed® non-contact encoder is helping converters worldwide to precisely control the length and speed of their products during production, so they produce higher-quality converted goods more profitably that meet exact customer specifications. During this 30-minute technical webinar, you’ll learn:
  • Why tachometers and mechanical-based contact encoders are an inaccurate method for measuring length and speed
  • How LaserSpeed non-contact, laser measurement works
  • How LaserSpeed is being used in manufacturing applications such as measuring continuous product length and speed, controlling cutting systems, differential product speed, and product positioning
  • How you can minimize product waste and eliminate product give-away and shortages to customers
  • How LaserSpeed will give you a fast return-on-investment by measuring length and speed more accurately
Attend this webinar to find out how LaserSpeed can give you the productivity advantage. Please complete the following form to register for this webinar. Space is limited, so register today!
