Quick and Reliable Detection of Surface Defects on the Cooled Tube or Pipe
Measuring tube and pipe dimensions after the vacuum tank has long been an integral part of comprehensive inline process control. However, a new comparison of product parameters at the end of the extrusion line also offers tube and pipe manufacturers attractive advantages. How to avoid complaints by using SIKORA measuring technology
Laser Measurement of Tubes and Extruder Bore Holes
Using the Circular Triangulation Sensor, the inner geometry of bores, tubes, tanks, and other cavities can be measured. The radial laser beam measures the inner geometry around 360° in 3600 angle steps. The result is a precise inner cross section, and a 3D-model of the inner surface profile can be generated from the data obtained
