LaserLinc’s Chad Walker has received the IWCS Kitts-Kingsley Award for Best Presentation for his talk, “How Traditional Measurement Techniques in Continuous Casting and Rolling Applications Can Exhibit Perfect Ovality Yet Fail Circularity Criteria,” presented at the 2025 IWCS Cable & Connectivity Industry Forum.

We recently worked with MD+DI on an article covering a common challenge in medical tubing extrusion: understanding what's happening beyond OD measurements alone. The article explores why wall thickness and concentricity are often just as important to product quality as OD, and why relying solely on OD can hide critical process variation.

The July/August issue of Wire & Cable Technology International is now available. Sponsored by LaserLinc, this edition also features our technical article exploring how in-process ultrasonic measurement and insulation layer visualization help THHN manufacturers improve yield, reduce material waste, and maintain product quality through real-time process intelligence.
