The company is an authorised distributor
of Vickers International for hydraulics
equipment and components for the State
of Madhya Pradesh & Rajasthan. The
company also designs, fabricates and
assembles hydraulic power packs and skids
for custom-built applications.
ITL’s customers include steel plants, forging
industries, defence establishments, railway
workshops, steel tube plants, research
organisations and heavy engineering
industries. The company exports to regions
The Laser 2000 series diameter measuring
devices from Sikora are specifically adapted
to the increasing demands of the hose and
tube industries, and are developed for
product diameters from 0.05 to 300mm.
The latest addition to the Sikora family of
lasers is the Laser 2003 XY, the smallest
Introduction of calibrated
single scan technology
In-line measuring, monitoring and control
systems expert, Zumbach Electronic,
has introduced CSS (calibrated single
scan) technology, which brings a number
of improvements. The most important
innovation is that each mirror is individually
identified, and its error characteristics are
stored in a chip, meaning that each mirror
is individually calibrated. Up to 1,200
measurements/s, ie all measurements, are
available for further processing.
 ODAC measuring heads equipped with the CSS
technology are available in 1, 2 and 3 axis
models
A high speed processor in the measuring
head allows the measuring values to be
filtered and analysed depending on the
process (speed, product surface, dirt,
water, etc), and further processing for
minimum, maximum, average, ovality and
fault detection can be configured. Over 300
processed data packages/s can then be
exported over a data port.
With the new CSS technology, higher
measuring and data rates are combined
with the robustness and precision of laser
scanning. CSS is already available in a
number of ODAC® laser heads.

 An NC online fly cutoff from ITL
 Laser 2003 XY is the smallest of the Sikora
diameter measuring systems
Small diameter measuring systems
of the two-axis-gauge heads. With a
repeatability of 0.1µm, it is designed for the
measurement of extremely small hose and
tubes with diameters from 0.05 to 3mm.
The device is equipped with pulse-driven
laser-light sources in combination with high-
resolution CCD-sensor lines and powerful
signal processors.
Extremely short exposure times of
0.2µseconds guarantee precision at all
line speeds, even if the measuring object
is vibrating. The use of the latest SMD
technology makes the small and powerful
gauge head easy to install anywhere on
the production line. There are no optical
elements or moving parts in the system to
wear or degrade, providing maintenance
free operation and optimum reliability.
Requiring no calibration, the measuring
values remain precise after years of
operation.
