validation of drawn wires. ResTest 1 will nd its place at the raw material incoming inspection as well as after the drawing process. It results in the improvement of the nal cable quality and in the performance of an accurate acceptance test of drawn wires. The existing test equipment on the market solely provides an approximate value (by calculation) of this intrinsic physical parameter. • The science of Computer Aided Quality (CAQ) is developing in the same signi cant way as development (CAD) and manufacturing (CAM). CIQ, Aesa’s data management system, connects the multiple “quality islands” of the manufacturing plant and stores all the acquired data in a central database. Continuously capturing the process data and identifying the trends in real-time allows customers to drive their processes in a cost-e ective and e cient way. The recorded data can not only ensure the conformity of the product but also analyse the long-term trends to enable quality professionals to develop strategies and process improvements. CIQ has been designed taking foremost into consideration the speci cities of the cable industry, ie length-based data. CIQ provides an e ective solution

Aesa Cortaillod Stand: 10A38

Aesa Cortaillod, a Swiss company that innovates in cable quality metrology, will be introducing the latest test products for enhancing quality management and productivity. Driven by a constant commitment to boost customers’ yield, Aesa will take this opportunity to meet the main players in the cable industry and demonstrate new capabilities of its test equipment. A typical set of systems will be available for demo sessions: • The new Vega DT (Desktop), integrating embedded VNA and PC, o ers a compact solution for the measurement of LAN cables. With alien crosstalk (AXT) measurement being required more and more by the existing and coming standards, Aesa developed a speci c multi-loading solution, making possible the achievement of such a measurement on four-pairs equipment. • Another innovation is the new ResTest 1 linear resistance bridge, allowing a reliable and quick measurement of the wire resistivity. This new functionality is a major asset for the

which can be interfaced with the most commonly used ERP or MES. With high priority given to knowledge sharing, technical and practical sessions led by specialists will be performed on the stand. On Tuesday morning, 5 th April, Aesa will demonstrate the measurement of the resistivity parameter on its innovative ResTest1, the sole equipment on the market able to measure it. On Wednesday morning, 6 th April, the company will discuss the EMC and AXT measurement capabilities of the new Vega DT.
