The SICK OL1 Delivers Precise Detection in the Micrometer Range


he SICK OL1 Optical Micrometer is a highly-accurate, miniature and rugged addition to SICK’s portfolio of displacement technologies for thread, material thickness and edge measurements in continuous, sheet feeding and winding machines. The SICK OL1 Optical Micrometer is a

Salt spray testing keeps a check on


corrosion- resistance


ot on the heels of its fatigue testing facility, William Hughes has added salt spray testing to its cannon of quality control procedures.


H


Salt spray or salt fog testing exposes springs and other components to a saline fog environment in order to ascertain the corrosion resistance of the material of which they’re made or the surface coating thereof. A controlled saline situation will show how long it takes for a component to accede to rust or other oxides, if indeed it succumbs at all.


Equipment required for the salt spray chamber comprises the holding tank with its salt solution of between 4 – 6% pH and the salt spray cabinet itself where the salt water solution is atomised using pressurised air.

rugged instrument for integration into small spaces. With a miniature sender and receiver placed up to 300mm apart, it uses light curtain measurement technology, based on a multipixel, linear CMOS sensor, for high- precision, high-repeatability measurement and process control in the micrometer range. The OL1 is teamed with the SICK AOD1 Mini displacement evaluation unit for improved stability and consistency of output. With a 10mm light band and detection resolution down to 0.2mm, the OL1 Optical Micrometer is a versatile and stable


performer at short ranges, small tolerances


and for handling thin materials, so it can support precision applications, for example in paper, printing and packaging machines, electronics and solar manufacture and wire and metal forming industries. “SICK was able to apply its world-leading expertise in light curtain technology to develop a technology with micrometer accuracy that delivers high accuracy and efficiency in 1D and 2D profiling and displacement measurement within very limited space,” says Neil Sandhu, SICK’s UK Product Manager for Imaging, Measurement and R anging.


“Whether designing new machines, or upgrading existing applications, the OL 1 Optical Micrometer provides a highly-reliable and accurate option for web or thread width measurement, double layers, hole diameters or edge positioning and guidance.


It is therefore particularly useful in industries such as paper making, printing and packaging industries, metal forming and wire manufacture, and the electronics and solar industries. Sick (UK) Ltd Sick (UK) Ltd  01727 831121  www.sick.co.uk

Industrial grade Intel NUC format rugged system


VM Limited has announced availability of the Jetway JBC311U93 industrial grade NUC format embedded system. Based on the Intel Celeron 7.5W TDP Bay-Trail M Quad-Core SOC processor clocked at 1.83 to 2.16 GHz and with up to 8 GB of DDR3L-1333 DRAM, it is housed in a rugged 110 x 116 x 49 mm aluminium enclosure. It offers fanless operation and long-term operational life, with a minimum planned lifecycle of Q1 2029. While potential applications are very broad, the unit is particularly suitable for systems where physically harsh operating environments, restricted access and long-term reliability are primary considerations.


B It offers impressive computing power


combined with extensive I/O capability and support for dual 1920 x 1200 HDMI displays, driven by Intel Gen 7 HD Graphics. It is available in two standard versions: with or without 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0. The unit without Wi- Fi capability provides a half-size Mini-PCIe slot.


Both versions have a full-size 3 GB/s mSATA Slot, two Gigabit LAN ports, four USB ports and a RS232/422/4 port. A wall mount, VESA bracket and DIN rail mountings are included as standard, giving extensive mounting flexibility, ideal for control room mounting or hiding away inside a larger machine. The unit is powered from an external 36W 12 VDC PSU and it has support for both Windows and Linux OS.
