Extrusion International USA 5-2022

53 Extrusion International 5/2022 provides an accurate prediction of the wall thickness and diameter values to be expected after cooling at the end of the extrusion line. A manual input of the refractive index when changing the production conditions is not necessary at any time due to this procedure. "The CENTERWAVE 6000 convinces mainly due to the advantages that the technol- ogy offers for the extrusion process," Schalich explains. The "one-button operation" rules out operating errors, target dimensions are quickly achieved, start-up scrap is avoided, highest qual- ity is ensured, and processes are opti- mally controlled. World premiere: CENTERWAVE 6000/250 Millimeter wave technology from SIKORA was previously known for the measurement of larger pipes. At the K, SIKORA presents for the first time the CENTERWAVE 6000/250, for smaller tube diameters from 50 to 250 mm. It enables 100 % measure - ment of the wall thickness, as well as the determination of diameter and ovality for tubes with wall thicknesses from 1.5 mm due to its automatic ad- justment of the rotation speed. Like all CENTERWAVE devices, the system is equipped with a transceiver that continuously rotates 360 degrees around the product. In doing so, the Measuring values of the CENTERWAVE 6000 are clearly visualized The smallest model of the CENTERWAVE family for small product diameters from 50 to 250 mm Inspection and sorting of plastic pellets with the PURITY SCANNER ADVANCED Whether it is inhouse, post- consumer, bottle or chemical recycling: closing the loop in a precise and profitable way if machines are perfectly tuned for the respective application. Choose the number one technology from EREMA when doing so: over 6500 of our machines and systems produce around 14.5 million tonnes of high-quality pellets like this every year – in a highly efficient and energy-saving way.
