Laser Systems BARLINE.XY Laser System for on-line diameter control of bars and tubes. The Barline.XY Laser System has been specially designed for on-line gauging of the outside diameter of products manufactured in cut lengths; such as steel ground bars, steel drawn tubes, copper tubing, etc The main functions of the system are as follows: • through-feed measurement and display of the external diameter • tolerance checking and output alarms for part sorting • real-time grinder regulation • processing and printing of statistical reports • interface with remote computer

System configuration The Barline.XY System is based on an Xactum Laser Gauge, installed at the output of the grinder or drawing bench, which measures very accurately the outside diameter of the product passing through the laser beam. The non-contact operating principle enables through-feed inspection, without having to stop or slow down the product, as its vibration and movement do not affect the gauging accuracy. The dual axis laser gauge (XY) allows additional ovality checking, provided that the product doesn’t rotate around its axis (i.e. drawn tube); on spinning product (i.e. ground...

The Barline.XY Software The Barline.XY software is pre-loaded inside the Xactum gauge and, thanks to its modular structure (basic package + optional Regulation and Statistics) it can meet all operational requirements. Special care has been taken to ensure that the system is easy to use and simple to program even by nonexperts. Through the CE-100 Interface Panel, the operator uses function keys and pop-up menus to select the various functions or to enter the numerical values requested by the program. • Control parameters can be programmed and stored in the product library. • Automatic...
