Zumbach Electronic: TUBE 2014 preview
TUBE 2014, 7 – 11 April, Düsseldorf, Germany
ZUMBACH – Swiss Prime Measuring since 1957 - will join the international trade fair for tube products TUBE 2014 in Düsseldorf. Novel and intelligent solutions as well as cost efficient solutions for in-line measurement and control of tubes, pipes and profiles are going to be the focus of Zumbach's exhibition booth 5 E17.
Excerpt of the novelties:
STEELMASTER SMR Gauges - New Rotating Gauges for High Speed Dimension Measurement in Hot Rolling Mills.
These new gauges feature, among others, a revolutionary new system for fully contactless power and signal transmission from the laser heads. Additionally they offer novel and significant advantages over other gauges, when it comes to fast and accurate capture of dimensions in longitudinal and radial direction. The maintenance for SMR gauges is close-to-zero.
The mechanical concept is extremely simple and robust; no wear parts, no collector rings, no brakes, etc.
Depending the application and the customer needs, static STEELMASTER SMS or oscillating SMO are also available
PROFILEMASTER® - New In-line Profile Gauge for Hot Rolling Mills.
In addition to the existing line of profile gauges for cold steel and metal profiles, Zumbach exhibits this new version for hot applications. The gauges are based on triangulation by camera vision, often also called light cut principle. Models are available for any hot rolled profile up to 500 mm (edge length) and with up to 8 measuring points (measuring units). All models are also available for cold applications.
ECOGAUGE Systems - New Compact and Low Cost Diameter/Width Gauges for Hot and Cold Processes.
On show will be one of the new upgraded ECOGAUGE systems of single axis gauges. With new models, ECOGAUGE 160 and 550, the range of applications have been extended to a diameter of 500mm (20in.).
Typical solutions are between rolling stands for bar or for strips or in conveyors, after hot extrusions, after radial forges or in peeling and grinding operations. Mounting is very flexible and possible in horizontal, in vertical or any orientation.
