Cast Iron Pouring Automatic Radiation Thermometer Measurement System MiEL Thermo HT

Achieving stable temperature measurement for each mold with strong resistance to disturbances through image analysis!

In casting, factors such as quality defects and re-melting lead to increased energy consumption. Therefore, it is necessary to properly manage the temperature of the molten metal to prevent the occurrence of defective products. The "MiEL Thermo HT" contributes to improving traceability and utilizing data for quality improvement, which could not be achieved with conventional thermocouples or radiation thermometers. 【Features of this system】 ■ Manual measurements using thermocouples make it difficult to measure for each mold. → Measurement for each mold is possible. ■ Conventional radiation thermometers have large measurement errors due to the influence of disturbances, making it difficult to obtain stable data. → Measurement is stable and less affected by disturbances through image analysis! ■ Conventional radiation thermometers have narrow measurement areas, making measurement difficult. → Capable of measuring over a wide range and automatically extracting molten metal! ■ High costs when failures occur. → Optical devices use general-purpose industrial cameras, making replacement affordable! 【Benefits of implementation】 ■ Improved traceability through stable measurements for each mold. ■ Possible utilization of data for quality improvement. ■ Reduction of waste and labor hours due to decreased frequency of thermocouple measurements.
