Application of Infrared Thermometers in the Iron and Steel Smelting Industry
Within the scope; Is the temperature of the heating furnace too low or too high; Does the rolling mill need to be adjusted, or to what extent does it need to be cooled. Infrared thermometers can accurately monitor each stage, ensuring that steel remains correct throughout the entire processing process
Metallurgical properties. Infrared thermometers can help improve product quality and productivity, reduce energy consumption, enhance personnel safety, and minimize downtime in the steel production process. Infrared thermometers are mainly used in steel processing and manufacturing processes
To be applied in processes such as continuous casting, hot blast furnace, hot rolling, cold rolling, bar and wire rolling. INF infrared thermometer sensor head with digital circuit and bidirectional communication (such as IRCON's MODLINE5)
Series), remote parameter settings can be made for the sensing head in the control room to enhance functionality and control more perfectly - this is particularly important for metal materials with varying emissivity. To produce high-quality products and improve productivity,
Accurate temperature measurement is crucial throughout the entire steelmaking process. When continuous casting turns molten steel into flat billets, slabs, or square billets, there may be a reduction in production or shutdown. Accurate real-time temperature monitoring, combined with water nozzle and flow rate adjustment, is required to provide
Appropriate cooling ensures the required metallurgical properties of the steel billet, ultimately resulting in high-quality products, improved productivity, and extended equipment lifespan. The selected sensor head model is determined by the production process and the placement position of the sensor head. If installed
In harsh environments where the line of sight is obstructed by dust, water mist, or steam, the fiber optic dual color sensing head and integration
A colorimetric temperature probe is a better choice. If a temperature distribution map from edge to edge of the casting blank is required, a row scanning infrared thermometer can be used. The type of hot rolling and the number and type of rolling mills during the rolling process vary with the type of product being processed. Continuous temperature measurement and rack adjustment throughout the entire steel production process can ensure product quality and normal operation of the production line
Used and can avoid accidental shutdown. A high-performance dual color thermometer or a 1mm wavelength line scanning infrared thermometer (for wide slab) can be installed before the descaling machine and roughing mill to assist operators in checking whether the product temperature meets the rolling requirements and setting the roughing mill parameters accordingly. The steel billet continues to cool before entering the rolling mill. If the production line stops working for a period of time, the temperature of the steel billet may be lower than before it is restarted. Therefore, the rolling mill must be set up to compensate for the corresponding temperature changes. The rolling mill can be manually set by the operator, or an infrared thermometer can be installed in front of each rolling mill, and the rolling mill can be automatically set. This ensures that the rolling mill is set up correctly. To eliminate control
The influence of steam and dust in the cooling zone on temperature measurement can be accurately measured even when the energy of the target is blocked by 95% using a colorimetric thermometer. During the hot rolling process, the cooled steel plate is usually coiled into steel coils by a coiler,
