Abstract

A measurement apparatus includes a first sensor, scanner head, and computing device coupled to the first sensor that stores relative signal level ranges at selected spectral marker region(s) compared to a common region each corresponding to a composite sheet material grade and an associated sensor calibration. The computing device measures a first signal in the spectral marker region and a second signal in the common region of a composite sheet including a sheet material and a high-z material, determining a current relative signal level comparing a current signal level of the first and second signal, and identifying a current composite sheet material grade for the composite sheet from the composite material grades using the current relative signal level. Based on the current composite material grade a current sensor calibration is chosen from the sensor calibrations, and ≥1 physical parameter for the composite sheet is determined from the current sensor calibration.
