Based in Guangzhou, Guangdong/China, WOJUN (Guangzhou) Rubber Co., Ltd., is specialized in manufacturing engineering machinery rubber hoses. Since 2013, the company has integrated four SIKORA X-RAY 6000 PRO into its production lines to ensure quality control during the extrusion process. The X-ray systems continuously measure wall thickness, eccentricity, and diameter of rubber hoses during extrusion. The partnership is driven by a shared commitment to maximum product quality and productivity – ultimately enhancing customer satisfaction.
Engineering machinery rubber hoses must meet extremely high standards. Parameters such as inner and outer diameter, wall thickness and eccentricity must adhere precisely to specifications. ”Precision and consistency are key to delivering high-performance products,” says Mr. Deng, General Manager at WOJUN (Guangzhou). “With real-time monitoring, we ensure that every hose leaving our facility meets the strictest quality requirements.” While various quality control methods are available on the market, X-ray technology has proven to be the most advanced and reliable solution for rubber hose measurement.
Seamlessly integrated into the extrusion line, the X-RAY 6000 PRO provides continuous monitoring the wall thickness of up to three material layers. It ensures that wall thickness is reduced to the minimum tolerance value, gradually reducing safety margins while maintaining precise dimensions through automatic control. “By optimizing our material usage while maintaining quality, we achieve efficiency without compromise,” adds Mr. Deng.
The combination of rigorous quality control and material savings leads to a significant increase in productivity. At the same time, highest product quality meets customer expectations, driven by long-term satisfaction and success.
