ducts, hydraulic hoses, etc. RAYEX

measures and controls diameter, ovality,

wall thickness and eccentricity of single

and multilayer products with up to four

layers. It provides precise measuring va-

lues and highest reliability for pipe and

hoses with an outside diameter of up to

80mm. The system features the latest X-

ray technology and software solutions.

In combination with the data aquisition

and processor system, an automatic con-

trol of the line is possible. By controlling

line speed or extruder speed the parame-

ters are controlled to the nominal value.

In order for a manufacturer to select

the measurement and control solution

with the best price-performance ratio,

the suitable technology must be chosen.

After many years of experience in using

eccentricity gauges with X-rays and ul-

trasonic, laser diameter and inductive

measurement devices for different pro-

ducts and material, ZUMBACH expand

the X-RAY family for dedicated tube and

hose applications.

ZUMBACH’s static X-ray system RAYEX

kind of foamed pipe, vulcanized pro-

more important. Since almost 40 years

we are dealing with all countries around

Friul Filiere has taken the opportunity to

“The number of deals, as well as the

many concrete enquiries about new pro-

jects exceed general expectations on

K2016! It was clear from day one that

customers wanted to not only find out

about new technologies but also pur-

chase them”.

Friul Filiere confirms its positive result

and it’s proud to say visitors have been

its welcome guests travelling from more

than 60 countries around the world.

“The number of visitors has been impor-

the starting phase of production be-

comes fast and it is possible to save time

and money reducing the scraps.

“We were very excited at the positive

response TUBEASY technology received:

the live demonstrations that took place

three or more times per day, were always

very crowded”, continues Artico.

TUBEASY seems to be intitled to become

one of Friul Filiere’s highlights of 2017.

But it’s not the only one. The most re-

The display shows all measurement va-

lues numerically and graphically as well

as trends and statistical data. A line pre-

sentation with pictograms of the con-

nected devices provides a clear overview

to the operator. At thhe same time, the

system reduces the wall thickness to a

minimum value. Quality assurance and

the reduction of material lead to a signi-

ficant increase of productivity.
