Dimensional checks with LASER sensors

Laser triangulation sensors are an effective and accurate tool for measuring and evaluating high temperature metal products, such as billets and blooms. These sensors use a laser beam that is focused on the surface of the product to measure its dimensions. These include width, thickness, straightness and length. The laser beam reflects off the product surface and is transmitted back to the sensor, enabling it to give an accurate measurement reading. This dimensional inspection method is used extensively in steel rolling mills, where extremely high temperatures can present a challenge to more conventional measurement methods…
