  • Device and method for measuring an extruded flat-cable conductor
    Patent number: 7201056
    Abstract: Provided is a device for measuring at least one parameter of an extruded flat conductor cable in a water bath that follows the extruder. The device distinguishes itself in that the flat conductor cable is guided with one of its flat sides essentially perpendicular across an ultrasonic head arranged in a water bath and that the ultrasonic head is a displaceable ultrasonic head that can be displaced crosswise to the longitudinal direction, or the ultrasonic head is a stationary ultrasonic element row that extends crosswise to the longitudinal direction of the flat conductor cable. This device allows measuring the total width of the flat conductor cable, such that different parameters can be determined.
