OT - I have an application using an inclinometer to help position the angle of a die head for extruding adhesive in a coating process. The current setup has been cobbled together over the years to provide a digital readout, which does not display the angle. It displays a number which is interpreted as corresponding to a certain angle. The output of the inclinometer is 0-5 vdc which is sent through a signal conditioner to convert it to 4-20mA, and this signal is sent to a Red Lion panel meter to give a numerical readout. The system has become very unstable and not repeatable when setting the angle of the die head. Currently the operators are using a digital protractor to set up their angle.
I am looking for a new system to install or at least something that works better than the old system.
Has anyone had to deal with something like this?
Trying to improve on an old setup.
Any help is appreciated.
