Applications in the metallurgy and iron and steel industry

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…

Dimensional control of high temperature metal parts in the steel and metallurgical industry is essential to ensure the manufacture of quality products. To this end, specialized instruments are used such as laser triangulation sensors, laser distance meters and other instruments based on the optical measuring principle. Laser triangulation sensors provide accurate measurements by measuring the distance between two points with an infrared or visible light source. These devices are able to detect even very small irregularities in the shape or size of a piece. Laser distance meters are accurate and fast instruments used to measure ...
