printing system. Some applications may just need the encoder
pulses via a quadrature output. Pulses can also be sent to a PLC
system.
LaserSpeed enables manufacturers to set the desired pulse
rate (ex. pulses every number of feet, metres, etc.) to meet their
unique sequential printing requirements.
This enables the manufacturer to control the exact spacing
between print marks with ±0.05% accuracy. Under controlled
conditions, it is possible for LaserSpeed to approach ±0.02%
accuracy. This level of accuracy also ensures the manufacture
does not over-ship or short the customer of product. For
European manufacturers, the LaserSpeed encoder is available
as a MID-certified system to meet all the Measuring Instrument
Directive requirements.
Setting the pace for accurate length, speed, and sequential
printing
The advantages of non-contact length and speed measurement
systems, such as the LaserSpeed gauge, have been proven
on all types of wire and cable production processes including
sequential printing applications.
This non-contact, laser-based technology eliminates those
measurement errors associated with contact wheel tachometers
as a result of slippage and mechanical wear.
Manufacturers
that
employ
laser-based,
non-contact
measurement technology in their sequential printing operations
will be on the road to increased productivity, improved product
quality and real bottom-line savings.

www.betalasermike.comEraser’s model WT40 automatic bench wire twister is used
for twisting two or more wires at lengths up to 20 feet.
The unit can twist together several small plain or terminated
wires and is programmable to a desired number of twists per
inch.
The maximum material bundle should not exceed an
equivalent of three 14 AWG (1.63mmø) insulated wires and
twisting speeds are variable from 0 to 26 turns per second.
The WT40 utilises a custom holding/clamping device made
to specifications individual to each application.
Eraser is celebrating its 100
th
anniversary in business and
manufactures a wide range of industrial products including
wire, cable and tubing cutters, wire and cable strippers,
wire twisters, wire brush wheels, dereelers, infrared heating
equipment, measuring tools, and fybRglass® erasers.
