NDC Technologies’ Beta LaserMike
CenterScan 2010 gauge is designed for
accurate monitoring of the diameter of
insulated wire and cable, and monitoring
eccentricity of conductors within the
insulation during the extrusion and
insulation processes.
If the core of insulated wire and cable
moves off center, and continues
uncorrected, then out-of-tolerance wire
or cable leaves manufacturers with reels
of unusable product.
The CenterScan 2010 gauge solves
this problem by using highly sensitive
magnetic and optical technology to
precisely determine the location of the
conductor within the insulation. This non-
contact measurement system performs
eccentricity, diameter, wall thickness
and flaw detection measurements in one
gauge head.
The compact CenterScan 2010 is said
to be easily integrated into existing
production environments. It has the
advantage of high noise immunity,
allowing for closer placement to line
devices, and an optional ultra-bright
display gives simple access to viewing
and configuration of the gauge functions.
CenterScan 2010 will measure diameters
from 0.1 to 10mm (0.004 to 0.4″) and
determines eccentricity and diameter
with ±0.0005mm (±0.00002″) accuracy.
Its typical applications will include LAN,
RF, coaxial, mini coaxial, telephone,
automotive and installation wire and
cable.
