State-of-the-Art X-Ray Measuring and Control Systems for Wall Thickness (3 layers), Eccentricity, Diameter / Ovality

INTRODUCTION RAYEX D XT is a low energy X-ray and high speed scanning system for the measurement of wall thickness, eccentricity, diameter and ovality of multilayer or single layer products in CV lines or others. RAYEX D XT is based on the worlds first system which was able to measure all relevant cable parameters from outside the tube looking through beryllium windows. The RAYEX D XT is protected under international patents CH 685 336 A5, US 5 518 681, US 5 795 531 and other rights. Safe, accurate and economic in any line and process : • CV lines - CCV, VCV - MDCV - Steam CV - Rubber CV • Silane...

MODULAR AND PRACTICAL The RAYEX D XT is engineered as a modular system. There are practically no limitations in cable lengths between the main components and the auxiliary displays etc. The measuring unit is composed of 2 identical, light-weight scanners. All this means flexibility and easy installation, maintenance and service. Measuring unit This unit comprises 2 identical scanners each with an X-ray source and a detector, as well as the corresponding driver system with control electronics. Measuring tube This tube section, is manufactured to customer specifications. It usually replaces the...

DATA DISPLAY ON TOUCH SCREEN Great importance was attached to the simple operation and self-explanatory display of the measured data. This is achieved by using multi-colour graphics, supplemented by numerical values, bar graphs, trends etc. Out-of-tolerance situations will be immediately spotted, as respective areas turn red. Free moving arrows always point to the thinnest position of each layer. Main screen showing, among others, line schematic, status and instrument view, as well as characteristics view. Cross-section and characteristics view FEATURES Highest accuracy and stability • Ultra...

COMMUNICATION AND NETWORKING Today, the ability of sensors or processors to communicate with other computers or networks is essential. ZUMBACH offers a variety of gauges, interface units and USYS software to satisfy almost any need and concept. USYS Web Server – With this software integrated by default, a USYS processor can be addressed via an Ethernet TCP/IP network (LAN, Intranet, Internet), using a standard browser. USYS Data Log – is a WINDOWSTM based software for easy data collection from one or several ZUMBACH processors and for saving the data in text or ExcelTM files. USYS Data Log communicates...
