Manufacturers of medical tubing rely on high‑precision metrology to ensure products meet strict specifications for wall thickness, inner diameter (ID), and outer diameter (OD). When supporting R&D, quality assurance, or full-scale production, accurate tubing measurement is essential for regulatory compliance, yield optimization, and patient safety.
Lumetrics understands these challenges. The OptiGauge II delivers fast, non‑contact measurement of glass and polymer medical tubing, enabling manufacturers to verify critical dimensions with confidence while maintaining high throughput.
By implementing an advanced metrology solution, such as the OptiGauge II, manufacturers can replace older, less accurate methodologies and gain operational efficiencies while reducing inspection-related waste. OptiGauge II features:
Improved submicron accuracy and repeatability
Minimizes margin for operator error with low-coherence interferometer
Measurement of up to 20 layers
Automatic calculation of the thickness of individual layers and the total overall thickness
Using this non-contact measurement tool offers lower waste, higher yields, and faster time to market for medical tubing products.
Watch the video below for a simple tubing measurement demonstration using Lumetrics' OptiGauge II:
The Lumetrics' OptiGauge II (OGII) is a time-domain low-coherence interferometer that has been successfully deployed to enhance product development (R&D), quality assurance/compliance, and production. Its non-contact approach makes it ideal for transparent and semi-transparent materials commonly used in medical device manufacturing.
