Abstract :
A microwave sensor for glue on paper detection for industrial application has been developed. It uses a resonant cavity to detect and measure the amount of glue placed on a dielectric layer, for example a sheet of paper. It works in the ISM band, at 2.45 GHz. It can be used for the control of the industrial gluing for the mailing and packaging sector.
