In 2004 Sikora introduced its X-Ray 2000 series, for use in insulating and jacketing lines, to fulfil the industry’s need for precise measurement of wall thickness, eccentricity, diameter and ovality. This year, Sikora has launched a technological upgrade of the X-Ray 2000, the new X-Ray 6000 series with improved precision, long operation time and efficiency. X-Ray 6000 includes XLL-X-ray tubes (eXtra-Long-Life) and provides a selectable measuring rate of 1 to 10 or optional 1Hz to 100Hz. Moreover, it is designed to ensure highest accuracy under difficult climatic conditions. X-Ray 6000 devices offer application-specific options for the measurement of RF-cables, specifically for the measurement of the radial foam quality. In combination with the Ecocontrol 6000 display and control device, the measuring system provides the necessary information for optimum control of the production line in automatic mode.
