T echnology U pdate Tube manufacturing equipment from India ITL provides single point service, and is a one–stop centre for setting up an entire tube manufacturing plant. The company can undertake total turnkey projects for setting up the entire tube production line. In order to provide customers with complete solutions, ITL ventured into the manufacturing of equipment such as slitting machines, cut to length lines, end-facing and chamfering machines, high pressure hydro testers, pipe threading machines, and galvanising plants, and even started taking up green field projects on entire turnkey basis. The company’s tube and pipe manufacturing machine division’s related products include tube mill – ERW from ½" to 20"; tube mill – ERW up to 20" to produce API grade pipes; tube mills to produce stainless steel pipes from ½" to 8"; tube mill rolls; cut to length line; slitting line – For CR and HR slitting; burr-free fly cut-off – up to 20 cuts per minute of 6mm length; hydro tester – 8" to 20", up to 250kg/cm 2 force pressure; end-facing and chamfering machine up to 20" capacity; tube straightening machines – 6 rolls, 10 rolls and 14 rolls; draw benches with up to 100 ton capacity; galvanising plant for pipes; pipe threading machine up to 6"; and hydraulic tube pointing machine. ITL Industries Limited – India Website: www.itl.co.in Diameter gauges with fault detection ZUMBACH Electronics introduces the new ODAC ® F line of laser gauges. These new series offer high-precision, non-contact laser diameter measurement with extremely high scan rates and an integrated fault detection function. Thanks to the ultra high scan rates and single scan function, these scanners are, in addition to the standard diameter measurement, especially suited for efficient fault detection (lumps/ neckdowns) for cables with bigger diameters at a medium line speeds. Therefore, a separate and conventional fault detector becomes needless for such applications. Combined with the powerful Zumbach USYS processors we can process up to 4500 measurements per second from 3-axis scan¬ners. A special laser beam geometry enables the detection and process of very small defaults or diameter variations. Up to 333 data packets per second can be processed forward to a higher level system. Our data packets can include, amongst others, min. & max. diameter values, ovality, etc. A complete line of gauges is available for dimensions between 0.25 to 550mm (.01 to 21.65"). The main advantages are: double or even higher scan rates than before, ie more measurements per time unit; maximum fault detection (lumps/neckdowns) at increased line speeds; and FFT/
