Ultrasonic wall and concentricity
measurement system
BASED on its RotoUTscan ultrasonic
rotating head, Contrôle Mesure
Systèmes has proposed the
RotoUTDim system for the dimensional
measurement of tubes and cables
from 4 to 250mm diameter, in the
production line. Measurements include
wall thickness all around the product,
OD, ID, ovality, concentricity and
eccentricity.
The system is designed for the
measurement for all types of material,
including steel, plastic, fibre and glass.
Measurements are made by two
ultrasonic transducers that rotate
around the product.
Data is collected in real time over
the entire outside edge, with a step up
to 0.1mm, and all along the product
(whatever the length) with a step of
1mm. Accuracy of the measurements
is ±0.002mm.
Data is collected in a supervisor,
visualised and saved. Gates for
alarms are available, and input of
the encoder allows positioning of the
data. RotoUTDim covers a wide range
of industrial applications, including
nuclear, automotive, precision tubes
and cables, medical, and multilayer
coating.

Laser marking for
industrial production
from Rofin
WITH the EasyMark, Rofin offers a compact tabletop laser
marking system that is also suitable for engraving and cutting
of thin metal.
The range of application covers single part production with
manual part loading as well as automated manufacturing of
small to medium lot sizes. For both types of application Rofin
now offers additional options.
The AutoLock option automatically locks the door during
the marking process. This avoids unintentional interruptions,
and is a prerequisite for security-related marking tasks such
as product ident code or security code marking. In batch
manufacturing of medical devices, automobile or aerospace
parts, an incomplete marking process will almost certainly
cause the entire batch to be lost.
The optional available Mini-SPS interface allows for
closer integration into automated production lines. The Mini-
SPS interface adds actively generated signals, eg for part
identification, to the standard interface.
