Cutting-Edge Measurement and Control Devices for Extrusion
NPE2024: Sikora showcasing a range of cutting-edge equipment designed to meet the high standards of the hose, tube and pipe market.
Sikora will be showcasing a range of cutting-edge equipment designed to meet the high standards of the hose, tube and pipe extrusion industries. These include:
Centerwave: This utilizes millimeter wave technology to measure wall thickness, outer diameter (OD), inner diameter (ID), inner profile and ovality of pipe, regardless of plastic type and temperature. The system records measurements as frequently as the operator needs, providing a comprehensive view of the product from the inside.
Purity Concept Systems: The Purity Concept V eliminates operator eyestrain by employing an optical camera to analyze colored and clear plastic plates, flakes and pellets, detecting contaminated material in 30 seconds or less. This system offers reliable optical lab tests with automatic analysis and provides test reports for quality assurance. The Purity Concept X detects metal on the surface and imbedded inside pellets and samples.
X-Ray 6000: This measuring device ensures continuous quality control in hose, tube and pipe extrusion lines. These systems provide accurate and reliable readings for diameter, wall thickness, concentricity and ovality, enabling the checking and maintenance of required product specifications.
Laser Series: SIKORA’s diameter gauges in the LASER Series stand out for their simplicity with no moving parts, making them easy to maintain. These gauges are well suited for quality measurement with seamless integration into the production process.
