Measuring transparent products

 The measuring values are visualised on the processor system ECOCONTROL 600

In combination with the processor system ECOCONTROL 600, 1000 or 2000, further product parameters such as wall thickness are calculated and graphically and numerically displayed. The LED-diodes and high-resolution CMOS-sensor lines provide the basis for a precise measurement performance.

INFORMATION about diameter eccentricity and wall thickness is important to manufacturers of hoses and tubes during production. With a measuring rate of 12kHz the CENTRIX 8025 XY measures the diameter of hoses and tubes as well as of transparent products with highest precision.

As a result of advanced SMD technology the gauge head is very small and can easily be any integrated into any extrusion line. CENTRIX 8025 XY is suitable for product diameters from 0.25 to 25mm with a minimum wall thickness of 0.2mm. The gauge head is equipped with vertically arranged glass windows, which ensure an effective protection against contamination. The CENTRIX 8025 XY is open at the bottom side preventing dirt or water falling into the measuring area. The lack of wearing parts creates a unique

freedom from maintenance and calibration procedures are not necessary. The CENTRIX 8025 XY is equipped with a RS485 serial interface and RS232 diagnostic interface for the direct connection of a line control system or SIKORA’s control devices REMOTE 2000 or ECOCONTROL 600, 1000 and 2000. Optionally, it also offers an EtherNet/IP, Profibus-DP interface or even an analogue output.
