Laser Speed Gauge Shown with Air Wipe The Laser Speed 8000 E gauge takes the base LS 8000 sensor and houses it within a rugged environmental housing for double-sealed protection against hot and hostile environments. The system works on all types of products including rod, bar tube, pipe, slabs, cold strip, hot strip, plate and profile products. With various options and accessories this gauge provides a complete solution for the harsh environment of steel and non-ferrous metal manufacturing, including:

Length Measurement Systerms QuadraTrak systems from Beta LaserMike provide on-line measurement of overall cable length. A reliable and durable design ensures measuremen consitency and product longeviy with little o no maintenance. Precision quadrature encoders monitor cable length and provide a pusle output to counter, indicator or control system Timing belts of steel-reinforced polyurethane maintain contact with he cable High-grade metals and precse machining used in QuadraTrak bearings and pulleys preven bearing friction or pulley wobble Pulley assembly is carefully designed to

Fault Detection Systerms Spark Testers from Beta LaserMike provide on-line detection of faults in cable insulation such as voids and pin holes. All Spark Testers are heigh-adjustable and floor mounted for easy placement in line. Standard models are availale for a variety of applications, including high-frequency models for higher line speeds. Spark Esers can be controlled via the SI 900 spark ester indicator wih standard RS - 232 communicaion and built-in I/O, or via a Profibut interface module Meet virtually every international spark tesing standard including CENELEC TC20, BS 5099

Wire Preheating Systerms Preheaters from Beta LaserMike provide uniform, in-process wire heating to eliminate insulation voids in primary cables. When a wire is preheated for only fractions of a second by a low frequency (50 / 60 Hz) heat cycle, the hea is unevenly applied to he wire, resulting in ho and cold spots. When high frequency preheaing is used, more hea cycles are applies to the wre, ensuring more consistent heating all along the length of the wre. For this reason all bea LaserMike Preheaters use high frequency heating Safety features include wire break detection, current over

Length and Speed Measurement Systerms With the ability to measure length and speed with accuracy beter than +- 0.05%, LaserSpeed is he ideal gauge for replacing conac echnometers that are prone o a variety of measurement errors andhigh maintenance costs. laserSpeed uses the non-conact laser doppler velocimetry (LDV) technique with all signal processing and intelligence built directly into the gauge, allowing it to integrae wih a variey of other systems from simple length counters to advanced control systems. Contact Techomeers vs. LaserSpeed Conact techometers are typically used in exr
