The advantages: � fast centering of the

crosshead directly after starting of the extrusion process ment and control of the extrusion line under consideration of the minimum values

� continuous measure-

X-RAY 2000

Quality control and process optimization: at the extrusion of single and multi layer plastic tubes and pipes

X-RAY 2000 is an attractive on-line measuring and control system for plastic tubes and hoses. State of the art X-ray technology provides continuous measurement on the wall thickness, eccentricity, diameter and ovality. With the X-RAY 2000 SIKORA presents an exciting measuring system, which is focused on process optimization by providing: � quality control and improvement � reduction of start-up scrap � reduction of material over-consumption � increased productivity � approach as simple as a diameter gauge The technique of transilluminating the tube or hose with X-Rays in two planes of view provides wall thick- ness measurements without calibration requirements. Reliable measurements are available for multi-layer products with and without fabric reinforcement layers. This unique technique makes wall thickness measure- ments an operation as simple as a diameter gauge! With a relatively low investment a return of investment drastically below 12 month can be achieved.

LASER 2000 Check-out also SIKORA’s range of diameter gauges, which are available for products of 0,1 to 200 mm. The advantages: � XY and triple axis diameter and ovality measurement with optimum precision � MTBF (meantime between failure) >15 years � no calibration required
