Sikora, a famous name of a German company has informed PIMI that a Chinese company named Huacheng has used one of the X-Ray systems of Sikora for better quality control purposes.
The full text of the news is as follow:
***************************
Inline measurement of wall thickness, eccentricity and diameter of up to three material layers
Wuxi Huacheng Cable Co., Ltd., based in Jiangyin City, is a specialist in manufacturing special high temperature resistant cables. The company relies on SIKORA’s X-RAY 6000 PRO to ensure optimal processes and the highest product quality. Since 2018, Huacheng Cable has used seven sets of SIKORA X-ray technology for quality control in seven new energy cable extrusion production lines that effectively leads to perfect monitoring and controlling of parameters of cable during the production.
Quality and performance requirements for new energy cable are extremely high. All parameters, such as diameter, wall thickness and eccentricity must comply with specifications. Several measuring methods for quality control are available on the market. Due to its functionality, however, SIKORA X-ray technology has proven itself as a leading method for measuring new energy cable.
“With the X-RAY 6000 PRO we can use the full potential for process optimization and to deliver the highest product quality to our customers”, says Mr. Haihua Min, the general manager at Huacheng Cable. Directly integrated in the extrusion line the system allows to constantly monitor the wall thickness of up to three material layers and to reduce it to the minimum tolerance value. Safety margins can be successively reduced, and the automatic control keeps the dimensions within the specification.
Quality control in combination with material savings leads to a significant increase in productivity. In addition, by providing highest product quality, customer demands can be fulfilled, and customer satisfaction is achieved.
