Infrared Temperature Measurement in Steel Processing and Manufacturing

Use Raytek noncontact infrared thermometers in steel manufacturing processes where monitoring and controlling temperature is critical to productivity and product quality. Every section of the steel manufacturing process can benefit from Raytek infrared thermometers.

Continuous Casting - Accurately monitor temperature to maintain proper metallurgical properties and realize better quality products, higher levels of productivity, and longer equipment life.

Reheating Process - Continuously measure the reheater's overall temperature and burner efficiency with infrared thermometers to save fuel, and produce a better quality product.

Rolling Mills - For ongoing temperature measurements and stand adjustments, use Raytek infrared thermometer to automatically set the milling equipment. This makes sure the stands are configured properly for the steel's temperature.

Rod/Wire Mills - Properly control cooling with infrared thermometers to make sure the metallurgical properties are correct.
