March 5, 2012 - PRLog -- Vision Engineering’s Swift is a video measuring system with a high resolution camera and a precision built measuring stage, allowing engineers to measure individual components such as medical tubing within microns.

The extruded tubing is critical and therefore has to be measured making sure its measurements are consistent, as varying lengths of the tubing can be extruded at any one time.  Usually, samples of the tubing are taken throughout the run, making sure features meet with the exact specifications throughout.  Variables such as environmental conditions like temperature, and the speed of the extrusion, can all have an impact on maintaining the consistency of the dimensions.  As the tubing needs to be placed on the stage and orientated to an exact positioning, in order to measure the features precisely, engineers use the swift because they have the freedom to manipulate the cross section of the tubing, enabling them to accurately measure the wall thickness and the diameter of the varying holes.

With a range of medical tubing often manufactured on site, the Swift can provide the same accuracy for each variation, giving engineers the confidence that that they are supplying critical tubing, manufactured with maximum accuracy.
