SIKORA AG is a leading manufacturer and supplier of innovative online measuring, control, inspection, analysis and sorting technologies for the hose and tube, sheets, wire and cable as well as optical fiber and plastics industries. Worldwide, users of these measuring devices benefit from increasing quality, profitability and efficiency of the manufacturing process. Modern laser, X-ray and millimeter wave technologies measure precisely and reliably product parameters such as diameter, ovality, wall thickness and eccentricity. A continuously controlled calculation of production data helps avoiding wall thickness oversizes. The hose and tube manufacturer consumes less material and achieves a more efficient material usage. Every micrometer of production material that can be saved by the use of measuring and control technology makes the production more economical and protects the increasingly scarce resources.
