X-ray thickness gauge
The X-ray thickness gauge operates on the principle of X-ray attenuation through penetration. It employs a beam to pass through the measured cable, with a highly sensitive detector capturing the transmitted signal and generating an image. The system automatically calculates and outputs key parameters such as the conductor inner diameter, insulation outer diameter, wall thickness, and eccentricity in real time, enabling non-contact continuous measurement that integrates with "production and inspection simultaneously".
1. Application scenario
BV cables in the wire and cable manufacturing industry, specifically for measuring conductor dimensions, insulation layer thickness, and eccentricity.
2.Product Advantages
（1）Detection Capability Advantages (Hardware"Dual-Core" Architecture)
Higher Reliability: Dual-channel data realizes mutual backup and verification, delivering more stable measurement results.
Broader Coverage: Zero detection dead zones to ensure comprehensive and precise measurement.
Superior Image Quality: Adopts photon counting technology with extremely low noise and clearer details.
（2）Efficiency and Quality Assurance Advantages
High Speed and High Precision: 10 μm，high-precision resolution paired with 20 m/s high-speed detection, balancing accuracy and production capacity.
Non-destructive thickness and eccentricity detection: The detection process will not cause any damage to the cable.
100% full inspection instead of sampling inspection: Precisely measure every meter of cable to eliminate sampling blind spots.
Preventive Alarm: Instant audible and visual alarm when the value exceeds tolerance, eliminating waste from the source.
（3）Data and Software Platform Advantages
Data-driven Decision Making: Real-time data and historical trends are displayed in parallel, providing accurate basis for process improvement.
Real-time Data Visualization: Clearly display parameters and tolerances including conductor inner diameter, insulation outer diameter, wall thickness, eccentricity and concentricity (covering multiple real-time values such as outer diameter, total wall thickness, inner and outer wall thickness and eccentricity).
Historical Data and Trend Analysis: Automatically record all historical dimension data.
One-click Report Generation: One-click to generate trend charts of outer diameter, inner diameter and wall thickness, and automatically output production analysis reports in standard format for easy traceability and delivery.
Intelligent Out-of-tolerance Alarm: The system triggers immediate audible and visual alarms when parameters deviate from the standard, reminding operators to intervene in time.
（4）Integration and Deployment Advantages.
Powerful Factory Integration Capability: Easily connect to on-site industrial networks such as CAN bus, RS485 and Ethernet, and seamlessly integrate with PLC and MES systems.
