Binks Industries of Mapletag manufactures Pinhole Detectors that are in use Worldwide.
Binks produces many different Pinhole Detector Models and customizes them to meet your requirements.
Our Pinhole Detectors can find holes as small
as .001” (25.4 microns) in diameter in any opaque material, at line
speeds up to 5000 FPM. Customized Detectors can find holes as small as 1 micron at lower line speeds.
We offer detectors for
material widths from 2" to 96" inches. Our Pinhole Detectors
are sturdy, highly reliable, and low maintenance machines. Manufacturers of Steel, Tinplate, Aluminum,
Titanium Film and Polyfibron (plastic material used for battery separators) are our most common customers.
The desired on-line "low maintenance" is achieved by the use of a patented fiber
optic system used in conjunction with a single Photomultiplier Tube. The single
Photomultiplier Tube System makes the Binks Pinhole Detector reliable, and easy to
calibrate. Binks manufactures a very useful Multi-Channel Pinhole Detector
which uses a complete phototube and optical system per operating channel (or "Zone").
The size of the channel is defined by dividing the required number of
channels into overall width of the web as viewed by the detector. We offer Multi-Channel
Pinhole Detectors with 2 to 10 Channels capable of finding .001" holes.
Binks can also produce a "Large Hole/Small Hole" Model 8000 Detector. By using
two Parallel Optical systems, one individual system for the Small Hole and another
individual system for the Large Hole, only one pass through the detector is required
to properly grade the entire strip for both hole sizes. We can also provide Data Logging
and Spray Marking Systems to record or mark the presence of a hole in the product being scanned.
Our Model
Model DC3000
features Automatic Edge Tracking and 1/4" resolution across the strip width.
It has 16 User Alarms, can be programmed to operate as either a Whole Sheet detector (single channel)
or up to 16 Lanes (multi-channel, or "Zones"), and has User inputs for On/Off Line, Roll Change,
and Alarm Reset. Product Files that control the DC3000 operation can be saved and recalled at any time,
making changes between different products simple. The DC3000 is controlled by an industrial Touchscreen
PC, has a very small footprint, is light weight and has no moving parts.
