DCS Easylaser Now Presenting XT20 andXT22 User Friendly Precision Laser 1 400

One of the most important things during a machine installation is to ensure the flatness of the base. With the new XT20 and XT22 we have facilitated handling, which makes for faster measurements and fewer fault sources. More reliable machine installation, put simply. Both transmitters can be used for flatness and straightness measurement. In addition, the XT22 can direct the laser beam at 90 degrees to the laser plane, which means you can solve virtually all types of geometric measurement jobs. The area of use therefore does not stop at measuring the flatness of bases. The XT22 also has a higher technical specification for straightness thanks to fiber laser technology, and can take measurements at distances up to 40 m. The XT20 can take measurements at distances up to 20m but is also IP55 rated water and dust proof.    

New technology improves reliability  

We have installed electronic precision levels in the XT transmitters. This gives the advantage of faster feedback when levelling and less risk of errors during calibration, because all users see the same angular value (compared with reading spirit levels). The laser transmitters are wirelessly connected to the XT Alignment app. In this way, the user can be guided during calibration and the measurement procedure. In the event of temperature changes, vibrations or impacts that can affect the measurement result negatively, the app gives a warning during measurement. Data about the transmitter and measurement environment can be downloaded together with the report. This all provides greater reliability and traceability for your measurement jobs.

 Functions for easier use  

The rotating head is completely stable and retains its position during measurement. At the same time, with the new fine turning mechanism it is easy to set the pointing direction of the laser beam to hit the detector, even at distances up to 40 m. We guarantee that this will be very much appreciated by users out in the field. All operation is also managed without the need to lock/unlock rotation, which facilitates use considerably.    

Just like Easy-Laser's previous laser transmitter, the new XT20/XT22 can be installed and positioned in many ways: with integrated super magnets, on rods to be height adjustable, on stands and magnetic feet etc. We know that this is an important factor in practice to combat all those situations the user faces.   

A rechargeable Li-Ion battery gives long operating times, up to 30 hours. If necessary, the transmitter can also be run directly off the mains.  

Developed for use with the XT Alignment app  

The XT20 and XT22 are used with the programs Values, Basic flatness, and Straightness (new) in the XT Alignment app.   

The laser transmitters can be purchased separately (as a kit with charger and fixture) but are also included in complete systems, such as the XT770 GEO. The XT70-M unit can be used as a detector. They can also be used with E series detectors. Note, however, that the XT Alignment app is required to calibrate the electronic levels, and other things in the design of the XT transmitters differ from previous products. Therefore, always ask us first if you plan to replace an older transmitter.   

Easy-Laser have been known for their reliable geometry measurement systems for decades. With the new Generation XT laser transmitters, we are taking a step into the future, to a whole new level of reliability, precision and user-friendliness. The XT20 and XT22 are the laser transmitters of the future, in every way.

DCS Put to the Ultimate Test Part 1 Torsion Tests by HELUKABEL 1 400x275

Cables and wires in industrial robots and other moving machine parts are often required to withstand extreme stresses caused by torsion. Constant repetitive movements put materials under considerable strain. At the same time, operators expect components to function perfectly and reliably throughout their entire service life to avoid disruptions, outages and safety hazards.

For this reason, at HELUKABEL, we simulate intensive and continuous torsion stresses under realistic conditions with our high-tech testing equipment in Windsbach. We have several types of apparatus for doing this because some of our customers, for example those in the automotive industry, have very precise specifications for how a torsion test is carried out. The tests show that our cables and wires withstand speeds up to 1,000°/s, accelerations up to 2,000°/s² and torsion angles up to 720°. Hence, we make sure that each product always meets our customers’ high standards, and that they receive the impeccable quality they rightly expect from us as a leading supplier of cables, wires and accessories for more than 40 years.
