Rolling Efficiency in your Inbox : Hot Metal Detection in Rolling Mill
Smart Radar Sensor for width measurement Hot Rolling Mills
Challenge
- Hot metal surfaces develop an oxide scale that can affect detection accuracy.
- Rapid movement of hot metal requires sensors with high response times and precise positioning.
- Smoke, steam, and dust can obstruct the detection.
Solution
- Infrared based HMD sensor with advanced flicker free operation.
- High response time sensor 0.3ms (1500Hz)
- Air-purged sensor enclosures to prevent dust and smoke accumulation.
Specifications
- Standard housing
- 57 mm Ø stainless steel housing
- For ambient temperatures upto 200°C with water cooling
- Response temperature 250 °C to 900 °C
- Integrated optic with different fields of view
- OKA with 12 level switch
- OXA with RS 485 interface
