Continuous inline measurement is a crucial factor in the quality control of today’s cable production lines. “Since abnormalities are difficult to detect in real time through post-production or sampling inspections alone, online monitoring allows us to immediately identify fluctuations in outer diameter, eccentricity trends, and capacitance during production, thus preventing defects in advance,” explains Nobukuni Nakayama, Deputy General Manager of the Production Department at Kansai Tsushin Densen.
