Accurate cable insulation thickness is essential for both safety and performance – and it’s strictly defined by EN 60811.
To meet these requirements with confidence, manufacturers can rely on Nikon’s optical microscopy solutions.

Using the Nikon Metrology microscopy product range combined with NIS-Elements software, insulation thickness can be measured precisely and consistently on cable cross-sections.
This setup allows for:
- Automated measurements according to EN 60811
- High-resolution imaging for documentation and traceability
- Repeatable results that ensure full compliance and product reliability
By combining Nikon’s proven optical quality with intelligent software tools, this approach makes quality control faster, easier, and less operator-dependent – right down to the micrometer.
