Surface inspection - offline measurement : For what purpose?
The demand for faster production and smaller dimensions, zero defects and material savings, has led CERSA to develop new high-performance gauge. Our SQM-F gauge is designed to detect defects such as scratches, die marks, dents, blisters or particles that can appear on the surface of a wire/cable/tube during the manufacturing process.
CERSA has developed a bench to use our SQM-F offline. The goal is to fix samples (from 15µm to 2000µm) straight and centered in the measuring instrument. The linear displacement is manual and provides enough movement to characterize a surface sample around 500mm long. A PC software provides tools for displaying and analyzing the image of the product surface.
Applications :
- Qualitycontrol by checking wire sample surface appearance
- Indirect die control effect by analyzing the wire drawn
- Incoming inspection (quality control)
Types of wires :
- Metallic wires with reflective surfaces (steel, copper, gold, silver, iridium, titanium,etc.)
- Enameled wires, coated wires
- Medical tubes
Instruments making up this solution
SQM-F : surface defect detector
For detecting small defects on the surface right around the sample. The SQM has been developed specifically for wire surface characterization of small wires/tubes. It acts as a surface defect detector by generating an alarm each time a detected defect exceeds the limits set by the operator. An image over 360° is also generated all along the sample.
WST - SQMF : test bench
A tool specifically designed for the SQM-F to manipulate samples easily. CERSA developed a test bench to use our SQM-F offline. The goal is to fix samples (from 15µm to 2000µm) straight and centered in the measuring instrument. The linear displacement is manual and provides enough movement to characterize a surface sample of around 500mm long
