Copper mould tube is a foundamental part of steel casting process. It’s internal geometry is a key factor for a good product quality and plant productivity. Sideralpha Sistemi provides instruments for mould tube geometry check-up. In this article we show the benefits of mould tube laser scanning.
The state of the art in mould measurement has moved from mechanical contact probes to laser technology. The most important benefit is the contact-less and 360 degrees measurement. The full scansion of moud tube internal geometry allows a complete check-up of the tubes, not only the taper profile. Some controls are specific to the mould tube shape (ex. ovalization for round tube). In the following table all the available quality controls are shown:
The mould laser scanner provided by Sideralpha are designed to check all these deformations in copper mould tube. The checks are executed according with mould drawing and selected tolerances. All the measurement results are summarize on a measurement report like this:
Sideralpha Sistemi provides different equipments for mould tube laser scanning. Contact us if you want more informations.
