as jacket holes, bulges and surface
blemishes will be detected.
Taymer will also be exhibiting its print
verification system. Print View 1400
will freeze an image of a product as it
is being printed and display the image
on a remote monitor, enabling the
operator to easily verify print quality.
The Print View can include OCR
software to warn when the printer is
producing scrap.
Taymer has also been producing hot
foil printers for durable marking on PE,
HDPE, XLPE, nylon and Teflon, offering
bright, high contrast white printing on
dark cable jackets.
The printer produces highly accurate
length measurement and sequential
numbering, and is simple to operate
and change printing colours.
Taymer designs and manufactures
contact length measurement systems,
including The Length Rite 1200, for
improved productivity and cost saving
through 0.05% length measurement
accuracy.

Videx
Booth 1110
Videx is offering open die cold formers
with one or two dies, up to 250 ton
heading, offered with either fully
automatic feed – from the coil – or
manual feed by operator.
The hand feed cold formers are a
solution to the industry for production
of small and medium size batches (500
to 15,000 pieces) of headed, collared
or extruded parts. The machines are
believed most suitable for long parts or
parts that require long strokes.
The gripper dies are mounted in an
independent block that is lifted by a
pneumatic cylinder and easily slides out
of the machine, enabling a changeover
to be performed in minutes.
An easily accessible nut at the back
part of the machine adjusts the stroke.
The machine is designed with a slim
body that enables feeding of pre-
bent parts either from the front or from
the side.
