Never before has it been this easy to measure your roller alignment!
Sigma-Nip® P-Series is a powerful new Windows based system that allows the quick and easy diagnosis of roller conditions � namely the measurement of nip contact pressure. With minimal investment and no prior experience a user can quickly and accurately record spot nip pressure (contact point between rollers) at any section of your web or sheetfed process. Sigma-Nip® P�s sensing capability is as sensitive as it�s case is durable � its ergonomic shell is impact hardened and water resistant.
No more time consuming and inaccurate nip measurements with carbon paper. Now nip readings can be determined instantaneously and adjustments made while the sensor is between your rolls! Sigma-Nip® P-Series is also economical, just like your carbon paper; the sensor elements that connect into the Sigma-Nip® P-Series device are designed to provide thousands of readings before replacement by the user is necessary.
