Stand K12
Beta LaserMike will exhibit its
complete system solution for in-
process measurement and automated
quality testing of wire and cable. Beta
LaserMike’s in-process measurement
system solution monitors all critical
points of the cable production process
to improve product quality, increase
productivity and reduce manufacturing
costs.
Notable brands on display include
AccuScan for laser scanning diameter
and ovality measurement, CenterScan
for eccentricity measurement, Lay-
Scan for lay length measurement,
LaserSpeed for non-contact length
and speed measurement, LN Series
for lump and neckdown detection,
BenchMike for off-line sample inspec-
tion, and DataPro for process control.
Beta LaserMike will showcase its new
AccuScan 4012 single-axis diameter
and ovality gauge, especially designed
for the Asia market. This compact,
economical gauge performs 1,200
scans/second and can measure
product diameters from 0.1 to 12mm
(0.004 to 0.47") with accuracies to
±0.0005mm (±0.000020"). It also
includes highly flexible communi-
cations to a host PC or PLC and an
optional, ultra-bright display.
The AccuScan 4012 gauge can be
used with Beta LaserMike’s AccuNet
supervisory networking software. With
AccuNet, users can monitor and
manage up to four AccuScan gauges
in real time from a single location with
complete SPC and trend analysis.
AccuScan 4012 gauges are
Ethernet-ready, enabling the creation
of a network hub using standard
cabling for ordinary connection to a
PC.
The company will also exhibit the latest
release of its LayScan lay length
measurement system. LayScan
enables manufacturers to simul-
taneously measure four pairs at the
cabler to confirm the accuracy of
twisted-pair cable construction during
production. This non-contact system
uses four individual pair lay sensors
and Beta LaserMike’s LaserSpeed
length and speed gauge to perform the
high-speed lay length measurements.
A data acquisition and control system
effectively collects and processes
each lay length in the cable and allows
the full use of the customer’s off-line
analysis tools such as trend charts,
statistical analysis or FFT analysis to
readily observe, measure and report
systematic lay variations within each
lay. Data can be easily stored on a
local PC.
The LayScan system performs
measurements to within 0.025mm
(0.001") overall accuracy on the same
twisted pair. It can measure lay lengths
