Beta LaserMike to reveal the latest measurement solutions for diameter & ovality, fault detection, extended fiber length, and lay length that deliver production efficiencies and savings
Dayton, Ohio – January 7, 2014 – Beta LaserMike, a leading global provider of precision measurement and control solutions, is set to showcase several new offerings from its product lineup at this year’s Wire Dusseldorf conference and exhibition. The company’s newest innovations on display include the ultra-fast AccuScan 5000 Series gauges, 3-axis LN3040 lump and neckdown detector, Excess Fiber Length (EFL) measurement system, and the recently patented LayScan lay length measurement system.
“We are extremely excited to introduce our new measurement solutions and product improvements at this year’s Wire Dusseldorf,” says Richard Snaith, Beta LaserMike’s Director of Sales for Europe, Middle East, Africa, and India. “These new releases represent the fusion of listening to the global marketplace and our commitment to delivering measurement technology that enables our customers to produce products more efficiently, at higher quality, and at lower cost. We look forward to giving booth visitors a first-hand look at our latest offerings.”
Beta LaserMike will feature its solutions for in-process dimensional monitoring and control, as well as for automated cable testing at Wire Dusseldorf. Highlights include Beta LaserMike’s newest products, such as:
• Ultra-Fast AccuScan 5000 Series –these dual-axis gauges perform high-speed diameter and ovality measurements at 2400 scans per second per axis and provide the fastest single-scan accuracy in the industry. The improvements in the single-scan calibration algorithm ensure each scan is highly accurate and reliable. The high-speed tolerance checking option permits the early and precise detection of lumps and necks to eliminate costly product waste. The STAC (stranded, twisted, armoured, and corrugated) logic software option provides accurate max/min OD or enveloped readings at a higher rate, allowing for faster process control of complex cable constructions. AccuScan gauges effectively measure transparent, translucent, and opaque products up to 80 mm in diameter. All gauges offer highly flexible communications including RS-232, Ethernet/IP, Ethernet TCP/IP, DeviceNet, Profibus, Profinet, CANOpen, Analog, and Digital.
• LN3040 3-Axis Lump & Neck Detector –the new LN3040 quickly and reliably spots product flaws before they become costly production problems. Fast-sensing and processing technology instantly detects sudden changes in the product diameter to effectively catch the smallest of flaws. The LN3040 measures product diameters up to 40 mm and detects flaw height down to 0.05 mm at line speeds up to 3000 m/min. It is designed with a user-friendly operator interface, accepts a range of inputs, and provides highly flexible communications such as RS-232, Ethernet/IP, DeviceNet, Profibus, and Profinet.
• LayScan® Lay Length Measurement System –the latest version of LayScan solves scrap, costly rework, and productivity loss problems due to manual, time-consuming lay length measurement methods and crosstalk performance issues from lay variations. LayScan enables manufacturers to simultaneously measure four pairs at the cabler and twinner to confirm the accuracy of twisted-pair cable construction during production. A data acquisition and control system effectively collects and processes each lay length and enables you to use off-line analysis tools such as trend charts, statistical analysis, or FFT analysis to readily observe, measure, and report systematic lay variations. LayScan system measures lay lengths up to 25.4 mm at speeds up to 152.4 m/min with 0.025 mm accuracy.
• EFL Measurement System –Beta LaserMike’s latest EFL measurement system enables manufacturers to efficiently, accurately, and reliably produce loose tube fiber and fiber ribbon cable. It does this by effectively controlling the excess fiber length to make sure the fiber-to-jacket ratio of product meets exact production specifications. This eliminates time-consuming and costly techniques such as cutting cable, and exposing and cleaning cable fibers to measure product and calculate the excess fiber length-to-jacket ratio. The EFL measurement system integrates Beta LaserMike’s LaserSpeed® length and speed gauges and EFLTrak™ software.
• LaserSpeed® Length and Speed Gauge –Beta LaserMike will also be exhibiting its LaserSpeed gauge that accurately measures the length and speed of products without contacting the product. This laser-based gauge delivers better than ±0.02% repeatable accuracy, making it an ideal solution for replacing error-prone, high-maintenance contact tachometers. The latest version of this gauge, the LaserSpeed 9000, detects both forward and reverse directions as well as zero speed (non-moving product).
In addition to its in-process measurement systems, Beta LaserMike will present its line of DCM automated cable testing solutions. Beta LaserMike offers both bench-top and fully integrated turnkey solutions for accurately and reliably testing LAN/Data, Telecom, Coaxial, and Aerospace/Defense cables. DCM cable testing systems enable cable makers to test more cable faster for higher quality results.
