Sikora’s X-ray measuring systems
set worldwide standards with their
reliability and efficiency in the area
of eccentricity and wall thickness
measuring devices.
The new X-RAY 6000 will carry forward
the success story of the flagship
X-RAY 2000 from Sikora. Reliable
measurements, easy handling and the
typical Sikora face characterise the
new X-RAY 6000.
The elaborate construction creates an
optimum integrability in every cable
production line.
Furthermore, there are a number of
technological innovations: The X-RAY
6000 is equipped with XLL-X-ray tubes
and guarantees a long-term operation
along with the highest reliability.
An additional highlight of the new
X-RAY 6000 is the selectable
measuring rate from 1 to 3Hz
(optionally 10, 100Hz) as well as an
extremely high accuracy.
The integration of a universal power
supply, which covers all common
supply voltages, rounds off the
technological innovations of the X-RAY
6000 series.
The technology of the X-RAY 6000,
in combination with the display
and control system ECOCONTROL
6000, allows for a fast centring of
the extrusion tools and control of the
line speed or the extruder rpm under
consideration of the minimum values.
There are a variety of X-RAY 6000
models available for diameter ranges
from 0.65 to 650mm. All devices
measure wires and cables with up to
three layers of different materials with
the highest precision. The systems are
factory calibrated and maintain their
precision for the entire operating time.

More than a facelift
Incredible results were achieved
during the test run of Bongard’s
new Blackbox.
Thomas Bongard proudly
presented the company’s newest
development, which allows for
significantly increased speeds
when drawing high-tensile Cu
alloys, eg trolley wire. This
is achieved by using several
proprietary and innovative
improvements.
