    What type of sensor do I use?

    Thanks for the information djs. I've ordered their catalog. Is there a way to measure color change over time? The deposit does cause the roll to change color as the deposit layer builds up. I was taking pictures of the roll over time and measuring the color change using a program that can...

    What type of sensor do I use?

    Thanks for the info. The Ultrasonic sensor looks promissing. However I think this models voltage output vs. target distance is much to low to detect a change of 1 mm. significantly. Am I wrong on this? Are there any more sensitive?

    What type of sensor do I use?

    The roll can be made of hard rubber(red or white in color) or chrome. The material can be synthetic or paper fibers or a organic stickie substance. The build-up will be slow over time, anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour or longer.

    What type of sensor do I use?

    I am looking to measure a fiberous deposition that forms on a pressing roll. The thickness of the deposit ranges from 0mm at first, to 1mm thick and can cover the circumference of the roll uniformly or can form in a nonuniform blotchy fashion. The color of the deposition can range from white to...
