The VCPX5 cable measuring device and the VCPEasy software therefore come together to form a central measuring unit that can be operated by almost any machine operator. In practice, this results in precise cable measurements that are not in uenced by the operator and are in accordance with standards such as IEC 60811. VCPEasy is suitable for use as a central program for the collection of a wide range of test data in the area of cable measurement technology, pooling all relevant information in a single document. iiM AG – Germany Website : www.iimag.eu InnoVites will showcase its business solutions for the Smart Cable Factory, and discuss the bene ts of CableERP business apps. Fully cloud-based CableERP is based on the innovative and user-friendly Microsoft Dynamics 365 apps. It provides rich functionality for cable manufacturers and distributors to thrive in a connected world. CableSuite is a comprehensive and fully integrated enterprise software that supports all business functions of wire and cable manufacturers and distributors. It is designed to support speci c needs in design, engineering, warehousing and logistics, nance, sales, production and planning. CableSuite consists of industry-speci c, integrated solutions, which can be used independently. The solutions are CableBuilder, CableERP and CableMES. CableBuilder is cable design and quotation software for all cable types, and helps to achieve a competitive edge in today’s global market with continuous product innovations and reduced quotation lead times. CableMES is a manufacturing execution system (MES) speci cally for the wire and cable manufacturing industry. It is the engine in modern manufacturing that drives productivity and process improvement. CableERP is ERP software designed for the cable industry, based on the innovative Microsoft D365 technology. It comes with the industry best practices for sales, warehousing, planning and production. CableERP streamlines all operations of wire and cable manufacturers and distributors. InnoVites Booth: 1606

iiM AG stands for innovative and high quality products in the eld of optical metrology as well as LED lighting systems for machine vision. The business unit ’Cable Measurement Engineering’ under the brand VisioCablePro® o ers solutions for quality assurance during cable production, in particular cable measuring devices for measuring geometries on cable insulation and jackets. The product portfolio is supplemented by innovative solutions for cable sample preparation as well as for performing various material tests according to standards, eg the hot set test. iiM will present its star products: the VCPX5 measuring device as well as the cable O-ring cutters ORC80, ORC65 and ORC Micro. The primary goal of the cable measuring device VCPX5 and the VCPEasy measuring software that goes with it is standard-compliant measurement of the geometries of insulating jackets and cable sheathing in just a few straightforward steps. The diversity of the areas in which cables are used and the resulting abundance of cable variations mean that there are very individual requirements for this measurement method. In combination with the VCPEasy software, the VCPX5 can be used both in the laboratory and directly in cable production. Di erent operating modes are available depending on customer requirements. Whether the test plan is being read in before the start of the measurement, an externally integrated CAQ system (Aesa CIQ, Advaris, etc) provides the required test plan, or you are using the CAQ system ProCable 3, which was specially developed by iiM AG and contains numerous test plans in its database, VCPEasy o ers the right interface. In addition, the new version of VCPEasy includes the ability to measure customer-speci c special geometries. The software also calculates other important characteristics, such as the volume and overconsumption of the material used. For cable manufacturers, these features are an advantage when it comes to material savings. The software’s open interface enables smooth communication with other measuring devices on the factory oor, such as resistance bridges or tensile testers.
