( PR4US.com | Press Release | 2019-04-25 06:32:41 )Diameter and ovality measuring and control technology is crucial to wire and cable manufacturers, particularly in fine wire products, which requires high precision measurement. Manufacturers invest in-process measuring and control instruments to control products quality and optimize cost.
A technique of measuring diameter and ovality applied decades ago, and now most of diameter micrometers are using with, is laser scanning. It was offering high efficiency and precisely measuring. While the more suppliers in this field, the higher risk to buy a product with unsatisfied quality.
In recent of years, another measuring method is applied in the precisely measuring field, which is laser diffraction. Different with the method of laser scanning, laser diffraction micrometer doesn't have mirror rotating motor inside. The performance (measuring rate) of laser scanning micrometer depends on rotating speed, which requires the rotating motor keeps high speed rotating as long as you are using it. There are two obviously cons of laser scanning:
1. Short product life and maintenance required, as all moving parts cannot live long without maintenance. If you need a professional maintenance for your investment, you have to investment in the extra service.
2. Measuring rate is lower than laser diffraction. Laser scanning rate is limited by rotating speed, cannot compete with digital sensors like optical imaging sensor used in laser diffraction (CCD / CMOS).
SCreate Technology O2 series fine wire diameter laser diffraction micrometer, is the ideally laser micrometer for in-process / off-process measuring and quality control. It is capable of measuring fine wire diameters down to 0.005 mm, with repeatability of +/-0.01 micron, accuracy of +/-0.03 micron.
Particularly highlighted a unique feature of O2 laser micrometer, is SCreate's temperature compensation design, that allows the measurement results will not be impacted by operating temperature. Which makes SCreate's laser diffraction micrometers more reliable, higher performance and long durability.
