Aesa Cortaillod
Stand 503A
The current trend in the cable industry is
increasingly towards larger cross section
cables and aluminium conductors. As a
direct consequence, cable manufacturers
have di culties in taking reliable and
repeatable electrical measurements and
in achieving the aimed accuracy. AESA
Cortaillod recently introduced novel
equipment from the ResTest family,
the ResTest 210, which addresses these
challenges.
ResTest 210 masters the issues
encountered in the measurement of
large cross-sections (up to 2,500mm 2),
especially with aluminium, exible and/
or insulated conductors. The use of
hydraulic jaws ensures a good current
distribution while a hydraulic jack allows
for the tensioning of the sample under
test. This fully integrated equipment not
only o ers operating comfort, but also
the mastering of all the uncertainties
related to the measurement.
Therefore, AESA speci es the overall
accuracy of the measurement and not
the accuracy of the micro-ohmmeter
only. This two-in-one equipment can
also measure shorter samples of smaller
sections or copper material.

AIM
Stand 731
AIM will present automated work cell
solutions: Input wire from straight
and cut or coil and form, weld and
systematically arrange the nished
parts along with secondary operations
and production assistance from digital
importing, digital veri cation and
machine/cell utilisation.
From its patented hybrid forming
solution, the Synchro AFM line, capable
of versatility, fast output and low cost
maintenance to the newest innovation
in wire bending, upgraded and updated
2D and 3D CNC wire bending solutions,
single and double bending head
machines with Fanuc robotics integration
and complete automated systems,
AIM provides the answer to complex
solutions.
In all instances, wire can be fed directly
from a coil, straightened, bent and cut
using a software package that provides
exibility and simplicity in programming
and is o ered in all “universal” languages.

Beta LaserMike (An NDC
Technologies brand)
Stand 735
The Beta LaserMike products team from
NDC Technologies will be presenting
the latest solutions for in-process
dimensional monitoring and automated
quality cable testing. The Beta LaserMike
exhibition will demonstrate to cable
makers how precision gauging and control
can maximise product quality, production
e ciencies and manufacturing savings.
wire South America attendees will get
an inside look at the latest diameter and
ovality measurement solutions, such
as the AccuScan 6000 Series four-axis
gauge. The Beta LaserMike AccuScan
6000 Series is the industry’s only four-axis
scanning diameter and ovality gauge that
provides high measurement accuracy to
ensure wire and cable products meet the
tightest design and quality speci cations.
With communication cables, such as
coaxial and twisted-pair LAN products,
any error in the diameter or roundness
of the conductor or insulation directly
impacts the cable’s performance
characteristics – rendering the product
useless for the designed application.
The AccuScan 6000 Series solves this by
providing comprehensive measurement
coverage on wire and cable products. ➣➢➣
