Beta LaserMike showcases solutions for precision measurement of medical tubing

Beta LaserMike, a provider of precision measurement and control solutions, displayed its portfolioof systemsolutions for accurately measuring medical tubing at Medical Design & Manufacturing East 2010, held in New York in June. Attendees at the company’s stand were able to see a first-hand demonstration

of high-precision, non-contact measure- ment solutions for improving medical tubing production efficiencies and ROI. The company exhibited a range of system solutions, from ultrasonic to laser-scanning technologies, that enable manufacturers to accurately and reliably measure

ovality for increased manufacturing accuracy. As a replacement for error- prone and high-maintenance contact tachometers, thecompany’sLaserSpeed system is a non-contact laser encoder that directly measures length and speed to +0.05% accuracy. Other Beta LaserMike measurement and control solutions include BenchMike, a table-top system that provides fast, accurate, and repeatable measurements of cut cable samples and immediate feedback for out-of- tolerance conditions; DataPro 5000, a simple to operate process controller and data management system that keeps production processes and product quality under control; and AccuNet, comprehensive, supervisory networking software for multi-gauge applications.

any configuration and dimension of medical tubing. Beta LaserMike’s UltraScan system is a powerful

u l t r a s o n i c gauge that pro- vides non-contact precision measurement of medical tube wall thickness,eccentricity,diameter, and ovality, while AccuScan is an advanced laser gauge that offers non- contact measurement of diameter and
