Through Process Data Logging System
If you are heat treating products in your manufacturing process, you need to know that they have been exposed to the right temperature for the right amount of time in order to ensure consistent product quality.
By passing a Grant OQ610 oven logger - protected by a thermal barrier - through your process, a temperature profile can be produced that will show you exactly what is happening to your products and the process.
Benefits of through process monitoring include improved quality of your product and increased efficiency, reduced energy costs, quality assurance reports for compliance and traceability and complete quality control for your process.
Features
