NDC Technologies Introduces Industry’s Only 4-Axis 50 mm Laser Scanning Diameter and Ovality Gauge NDC Technologies, a leading global provider of precision measurement and process control solutions, is pleased to announce the latest addition to the Beta LaserMike AccuScan 6000 Series 4-axis diameter and ovality gauge family: the new AccuScan 6050. Like the AccuScan 6012 gauge which was released last year, the AccuScan 6050 provides the most comprehensive measurement coverage around the product’s circumference to instantly detect changes in product diameter. The AccuScan 6050 measures products up to 50 mm, while the AccuScan 6012 measures products up to 12 mm. Both gauges perform ultra-fast diameter and ovality measurements at 2400 scans per second per axis, totaling 9600 scans per second. These innovative gauges also offer the highest single-scan accuracy in the industry with single-scan repeatability down to 2 micron with the AccuScan 6050 and down to 1 micron with the AccuScan 6012. Both gauges offer the following advantages: • • • • • Improves ovality accuracy up to 100% Provides highest flaw detection accuracy with 25% improvement over 3-axis gauges Delivers the highest product quality yield for significant manufacturing savings Suitable for a wide range applications such as pipe and tube, wire and cable, and other extruded or drawn cylindrical, or shaped products Flexible communications for easy integration into your production environment Applications include wire and cable, plastic pipe and tube, cord and line, as well as other extruded or drawn cylindrical and shaped products. The March 2016 AccuScan 6050 and 6012 can be integrated with NDC’s Beta LaserMike Process Control and Data Management systems, such as the new InControl™ or well-recognized DataPro controller, and can be used alongside other Beta LaserMike dimensional monitoring gauges for a complete process quality control solution. NDC offers a complete portfolio of Beta LaserMike measurement and control solutions for plastic pipe and tube applications. NDC will be debuting the new AccuScan 6050 and 6012 diameter gauges at Wire Dusseldorf 2016 (Stand No. 11D68). For more information, please visit www.ndc.com/ betalasermike.
