WCN Spring 2012

Beta LaserMike, a global provider of precision measurement and control solutions, will debut its new LayScan measurement system and three-axis LN Detector (Lump & Neckdown) to the international wire and cable community at wire Düsseldorf 2012 in hall 11, stand A78. Beta LaserMike’s new LayScan measurement system (patent pending) accurately and consistently measures the lay length of twisted pairs used in telecommunication cables. The system uses optical, non-contact measurement technology to perform on-line, high-speed lay length measurements with accuracies to 0.0254mm (0.001"). LayScan provides high-data rate capabilities to precisely determine the variations in lay length within each lay. Systematic lay variations that are typically caused by twinning and cabling operations can be readily observed and measured. A data acquisition system effectively collects and processes the lay length data and reports the measurement results. Beta LaserMike will also debut its new three-axis LN Detector. This advanced, compact system provides more precise detection of short-term faults (lump and neckdowns) in the wire diameter than two-axis systems. The three-axis scanning system ensures 360-degree coverage around the product’s circumference to instantly detect changes in the surface profile. The LN Detector can measure wires up to 15mm (0.59") in diameter at line speeds up to 3,000m/min (9,842ft/min). It can accept a range of inputs including length encoder, tachometer, line start/stop, and clear faults and can be connected to a host PC or PLC using Ethernet IP, Profibus, and Profinet. Data capture capabilities enable you to report critical process information such as height, length, number, and location of the flaw. On show to the world. . .
