Long products

Long products such as profiles, billets, etc., which are produced by rolling, drawing or forging, often have complex cross-sectional geometries. DimensionCONTROL measuring systems are used for geometrical inspection of long products. Depending on the application, these can be equipped with ThruBeam sensors, red and blue laser profile scanners to provide the optimal solution for the application. The systems operate with impressive precision even under the toughest hot rolling conditions. Integrated, fully automatic calibration compensates for the temperature-related, potential long-term drift of the mechanical structure.

The dimensionCONTROL MPG 8208 and MPG 9208 systems are designed as horseshoe frames and generate real 3D data with which the target values are calculated.

Thanks to Micro-Epsilon's broad sensor portfolio, the thickness measuring systems can be customized for further measurement tasks or to compensate for influences on the mechanics due to temperature or mounting tolerances.
