Raw material forms a major chunk of the input costs of cable manufacturing. Companies spend millions of dollars each year on procuring insulation materials like PVC and XLPE. Reducing even a small percentage of these raw materials can translate to savings of thousands of dollars each year. Keeping a particular minimum cable insulation thickness is a requirement by many standards world over, which the companies have to comply with. The big trade off for the cable companies is to keep the material minimum so that the costs are controlled and on the other hand keep the minimum thickness more than the statutory requirements. For this to be possible, exact measurements of the insulation thickness measurement is very important. This is where our product Cable Genie – the most accurate and the quickest cable insulation thickness measurement system on earth comes into play. It probes 10,000 points across the insulation cross section to calculate the minimum thickness with virtually ZERO operator skill and that too in less than a second. From placing the sample onto the work stage to generating reports it takes less than three seconds, which is very useful in high throughput labs where large number of samples are to be measured on a daily basis.

Zero Operator To Operator Variation
Cable Genie works on Field of View and Edge Detection technologies which have zero operator involvement thereby eliminating all human errors in the measured results. This is a big advantage over Profile projectors and Tool Makers microscope which are dependent on operator skill.
More then 10,000 pts Calculation
The Cable Genie captures an exact profile image of the cable cross section and then its software probes 10,000 points on the image to find the minimum thickness. The sub-pixel image processing technology enables analysis of this large number of points.
Colour Measurement
The colour measurement module is a useful add-on for manufacturers of cables with multiple colors in the insulation thickness. An example of such a wire is the earth wire. In such cases there is a need to measure the percentage of each color in the cross-section. Also, thickness of different color layers can also be measured.
Three Step Measurement Process
The Cable Genie software is clean and simple. With just three clicks a user can get the desired reports in just three seconds. A large graphic display window with frequently used buttons located next to it enables users to reduce the turnaround time which is especially useful in labs where large numbers of samples are to be tested in a short time.
Customised Reports
Cable Genie reports can be customized as per any of the world standards for measuring cable insulation thickness. The reports are not only date and time stamped but also bear the batch number and operator name. The user has a choice to create reports in either PDF or excel format. Also, the location where reports are automatically saved is kept confidential, known only to the admin and can be anywhere on the internal server of the organization.
User Roles
The software allows the admin to create different users and assign roles to them based on their defined usage of the system. For example pixel calibration, report path settings are controlled by admin. Measurements, generating reports are assigned to regular users.
Audit Trails
Cable Genie software has a built-in audit trail which automatically logs each and every action of the user inside the software with date and time. This feature is specially included to meet regulatory requirements of some international agencies.
Orientation Independent
Just keep the cable sample anywhere on the workstage in any direction / orientation and you will get the correct results every time. The system is orientation independent which saves the total inspection time.
Integrated SPC
Inbuilt Trend Monitoring and Statistical Evaluation of any measured parameter like minimum insulation thickness is an important feature of the Cable Genie software. The Trend Analysis of any measured variable with the different parts which is important to understand the variation in the batch being inspected.
