Diameter measuring system iXRAY

thicknessX-rayfor plastic pipes

The iXRAY solves almost all measuring, automation and documentation tasks for single and multi-layer pipes and hoses. Thanks to a precise spatial resolution and repeatabilities in the µm range, the system reliably generates exact measurement data. At high line speeds, the X-ray system - optionally two or three axes - delivers precise measurement results. The standard systems are available for pipe dimensions from 1 to 63 mm. The iXRAY series is user-friendly and the line operator only has to select the pipe, hose, or cable recipe to start the measurement. Highest line efficiency while saving raw material is achieved by combining it with gravimetric solutions and the proven iNOEX process components. This makes the iXRAY X-ray systems a complete solution for the automation of extrusion lines. Furthermore, the X-ray units do not present any hazard to the operator. The radiation output is far below the permitted legal limits and other safety aspects ensure safe use.
