In the field of precision manufacturing of wires and cables, electronic components, etc., accurate measurement of the diameter of soft copper wires is a key link to ensure product quality. However, the soft copper wire material is soft and easy to deform, and the production process is often accompanied by high-speed movement, the traditional measurement method faces many challenges. 

 

 

 

1. Soft copper wires are ductile and susceptible to deformation by external forces, making it difficult to obtain stable data with contact measuring tools (e.g. micrometers, calipers).

 

2. High-speed motion on the production line generates vibration, which further exacerbates measurement errors.

 

3. The highly reflective nature of the copper surface can interfere with optical equipment, and the small diameters place severe demands on measurement accuracy.

 

 

 

Measurement Requirements for Soft Copper Wire

 

 

1、High precision: need to reach the micron level (± 1μm) to match the precision processing standards;

 

2、Non-contact: avoid physical contact leading to wire deformation or surface damage;

 

3、Real-time: adapt to the production beat, to realize dynamic online monitoring;

 

4、Environmental adaptability: anti-vibration, anti-electromagnetic interference, adapting to different wire speed scenarios.

 

 

 

Measurement Program

 

 

POMEAS online diameter measuring instrument through high-precision sensors and industrial-grade algorithms to control the measurement error within ± 0.5μm, far beyond the efficiency of manual inspection. Its real-time data upload function can be docked to the production system to achieve quality traceability and process optimization. In new energy vehicle wiring harnesses, 5G communication cables and other high-end manufacturing fields, this equipment has become a core tool for improving yield rate and reducing consumable waste.

 

 

1. Non-contact measurement: through laser or image analysis technology, diameter data can be obtained without touching the wire, completely eliminating mechanical stress interference;

 

2. High-speed response capability: the response time of the device is only 0.01 seconds, which can capture the wire diameter changes in high-speed movement in real time, and support up to 3,000 meters/minute production line speed;

 

3. Intelligent environment adaptation: built-in anti-vibration algorithms and multi-spectral light source, effectively solving the problem of copper reflection and production environment interference;

 

4. Multi-functional scalability: in addition to soft copper wire, but also compatible with syringe, fiber optic, metal wire and other small objects diameter measurement, one machine multi-purpose to reduce equipment costs.
