The application of infrared thermal imagers in the hot rolling process is mainly used for monitoring and analyzing the temperature distribution and changes of steel during the rolling process. This helps to improve product quality and production efficiency. Here are some specific applications of infrared thermal imager cameras in the hot rolling process:
In the hot rolling process, steel needs to be maintained within a specific temperature range to ensure appropriate mechanical properties. Infrared thermal imaging cameras can monitor the surface temperature of the steel in real-time, helping operators adjust the parameters of heating furnaces and rolling mills to ensure temperature uniformity.
By monitoring temperature distribution, potential defects in the hot rolling process can be identified, such as cracks, delamination or local overheating. These defects usually present abnormal temperature distributions in infrared images, making it easy to detect and address them promptly.
Infrared thermal imager cameras can help optimize the combustion and temperature distribution of heating furnaces, improve heating efficiency and reduce energy consumption. By analyzing the temperature of the steel before entering the rolling mill, the temperature and heating time of the furnace can be adjusted to ensure the steel reaches the ideal rolling temperature.
After rolling, the steel needs to be properly cooled to achieve the desired physical properties. Infrared thermal imaging cameras can monitor temperature changes during the cooling process, ensuring cooling speed and uniformity, and preventing cooling stress and deformation.
By long-term monitoring and recording temperature data in the hot rolling process, data analysis can be conducted to identify weaknesses in the process, continuously improve the production process, and enhance product consistency and quality.
The application of infrared thermal imagers in the hot rolling process provides important technical support for achieving precise control, improving product quality and production efficiency.
