or real time diameter, wall thickness, concentricity and ovalitymeasurements and control capability on CCV, VCV and MDCV lines for MV, HV and EHV cables of 10kV to 1GV. Benefits include material savings, permanent quality control and increased productivity, immediate measuring values at start up, no need for warm-up, no calibration requirements, and fast centring of the crosshead, all resulting in reduced start-up scrap. Multi-sensor technology (MST) assures reliable measurements, even with fast running lines where the cable vibration may exist. With every scan, the MST measures the vertical speed of the cable to compensate for vibration. The MST continuously monitors the scan curve for vibration and corrects the values or skips the values if they are out of an acceptable range. All layers can be measured with an accuracy of 0.015mm. Even a semiconductor layer with only 0.3mm can be measured accurately. Diameter accuracy is maintained at 0.005mm. The X-Ray 8000 NXT is easily integrated in any new nitrogen/steam CV-line or when upgrading existing lines.

over 400 installations worldwide, for measurements on MV, HV and EHV extrusion lines. The x-ray based measuring system determines wall thickness and concentricity of the inner semiconductor (strand shield), the insulation and the outer semi- conductor (insulation shield) of the cable, as well as the outer diameter and ovality. The next generation of the technology – the X-Ray 8000 NXT – provides higher accuracy to meet the increasing demands for precision, in addition to latest operating system, data storage, communications options and computer hardware. The X-Ray 8000 NXT XY- scanning system provides in process Sikora’s X-Ray 8000 scanner box, mounted into a CV-line m
