Tube diameter measuring systems
The need to save energy and raw materials can only be met with a highly reliable process. Ever-stricter demands on the finished product “tube” regarding uniformity and compliance with tight tolerance limits require continual quality standards.
The following objectives will be achieved by using the IMS measuring systems:
» Apart from wall thickness, it is also possible to determine the diameter, the diameter profile, the ovality, temperature, length, and speed of the tube – all integrated in one compact measuring system or distributed along your manufacturing process. «
