SMIK™ measuring system:

Integrated Measuring System in KERADOUCE^®

The SMIK™ is an accurate measuring system used only with the KERADOUCE^® rod coating. The information is engraved in the rod, and the sensors are reading the position of the rod without any mechanical contact. It offers therefore a very easy maintenance.

The SMIK^TM measuring system gives the following information:

• Position of the rod

• Velocity of the rod

• Acceleration and deceleration of the rod
