Measuring precision combined with
outstanding functionality and perfect
design – these are the features of the new
gauge heads of the Laser Series 6000.
This model range is more than a facelift of
the successful 2000-series and achieves
an even higher productivity.
From now on customers get a two-year
warranty for a gauge head on the Laser
Series 6000.
The applicable design of the
Laser-devices, with small dimension and
optional swivelling gauge head, includes
a measuring value display directly at the
gauge head for a further improvement.
Moreover, there are no external plugs.
A universal interface module is directly
integrated into the gauge head.
As a result the plugs as well as the cables
are protected from any production
influences. In addition, the gauge head
opening of the Laser Series 6000 is twice
as big as the measuring range. This wide
opening as well as the big sight field
allows for an easy cable feeding.
Regarding electronics the Sikora
engineers once again raised the bar: the
devices have a measuring rate of 2,500
measurements per second with high
single value precision independent from
the position of the product within the
measuring field and ensures optimum
line control and reliable statistical data.
The gauge heads do not include moving
parts and maintain their accuracy during
the entire operation time.
Calibration procedures or maintenance
are not necessary. The measuring devices
cover diameter ranges from 0.25 to
80mm.
In addition, Sikora offers further 2-axis
diameter gauge heads for products
from 0.05 to 500mm as well as 3-axis
measuring devices for product diameters
from 0.2 to 100mm.

Reliable spark tester
Designed for diverse cable types,
Sikora offers high frequency, DC and
AC testers for reliable fault and bare
wire detection.
All Spark testers include powerful
signal processors.
Spark 2000 UL, a high frequency high
voltage spark tester with a robust
bead chain electrode precisely detects
defects in the insulation during the
production.
It is typically used for building wires,
automotive wires and signal cables.
The test voltage is continuously
adjustable. Spark 2000 DC is a DC
spark tester, especially developed for
the testing of telephone wires, data
cables and mini-coax cables with foam
insulation.
The solid electrode and the electronic
box of the Spark Testers form one
integral unit. Optionally, the display
and control device Remote 2000 can
be fully integrated.
The successful spark tester range
also includes models for specific
applications such as the Spark 2000
BS, a high voltage AC test device for
cables with bigger diameters up to
200mm.
All spark testers conform to approved
test standards (AS, BS, CS, CENELEC,
EN, UL, VDE) and safety regulations
(as demanded by DIN/VDE 0800, IEC
479-1).
