of the measuring values, the system provides trend and statistical data. The optimum benefit in regards to increased productivity is achieved if the X-Ray 6000 system is used for automatic wall thickness control by adapting either the line speed or the extruder rpm. The operation of the equipment is user- friendly via touch screen. The X-Ray 6000 is available for products with a diameter of 5 to 100mm; the X-Ray 6000 Pro accommodates diameters from 0.65 to 300mm. Higher measuring ranges of up to 650mm are available on request.

The company states that lasers of the DC series have excellent beam quality and robust, low-maintenance design. From the new fibre laser generation – with smaller, wall-mountable housing and improved fibre handling – Rofin will show the FL 020 with 2kW output power. The FL series, with lasers up to 6kW, is characterised by its beam quality and efficiency. With fibre lasers, small tubes of 0.07- 1mm wall thickness can be welded. Various materials, including composite tubes or tubes of high reflective materials such as aluminium or titanium, can be welded with fibre lasers. As well as providing laser equipment, Rofin develops new processes together with its customers, such as the welding of deep-water tubes made of highly corrosion-resistant Duplex material or the welding of filler wires. Röhrenkontor Heinen & Böntgen (RHB) is one of Germany’s leading tube distributors. Its comprehensive range of products meets the requirements of the steel trade. As a flexible supplier, RHB has established itself as a specialist in the hydraulic tube sector. The company has over 50 years of experience in the industry, and is constantly expanding its range, as well as rigorously implementing innovations and investment. Due to a long-term partnership with a notable western European tube manufacturer, the company can always act flexibly and at short notice to individual customer wishes. In 2008 RHB expanded its storage capacity with a computer-controlled high-bay warehouse. The internal logistics were optimised using a new conveyor track system, providing further flexibility for meeting customer needs. info@rofin-ham.de www.rofin.de Röhrenkontor Heinen & Böntgen Germany 3D43

Sikora AG Germany

For online quality control during hose and tube extrusion, Sikora offers the X-Ray 6000 measuring device and the high-end series X-Ray 6000 Pro. The X-Ray 6000 is particularly interesting for production lines for products with single layer, with total wall thickness having to be measured. It is a powerful measuring device for the continuous measurement of the inner and outer diameter, wall thickness and eccentricity. In addition to products made of PE, HDPE, PVC and EPR, foamed tubes and hoses made of EDPM, nylon, rubber and silicon can be measured reliably. The X-Ray 6000 Pro is available for multi-layer products such as composite tubes, automotive, hydraulic and compressed-air hoses.

Measurements are taken continuously online at the extrusion process. X-ray technology requires no calibration, is not influenced by the type and temperature of the extruded material, and does not need a coupling media such as water. Measuring values are taken within fractions of a second and are displayed either at a monitor directly integrated in the gauge head or on a separate 22" flat panel vertical monitor. In addition to the numerical and graphical display

Stahlkontor Hahn (S-K-H) will be present on the corporate stand of ThyssenKrupp. S-K-H tubes and pipes are used for all applications in pressure, mechanical and structural sectors.The company’s sales team is looking forward to welcoming business partners from all over the world and establishing new contacts.
