18.8.2010

SR-Instruments Oy is delivering two Detmaster MPH Pinhole Detection Systems to ArcelorMittal Weirton Works in USA. The systems will be installed in October on Tin Plating Lines No. 4 and No. 6, which line speeds are 550 m/min. Detmaster MPH systems are able to detect pinholes from size 10 um up to large holes, and therefore, they will guarantee the efficiency and the quality assurance at the concerned Tin Plating Lines at ArcelorMittal Weirton Works.


22.4.2010

SR-Instruments Oy is delivering the Detmaster MPH Pinhole Detection System for rental use to the Ternium Mexico's Monterrey mill site in Mexico. The system will be installed on Tension Leveling Line, which maximum line speed is 425 m/min. The Detmaster system is able to detect pinholes from size 10 um up to large holes, and therefore, it will guarantee the efficiency and the quality assurance at the Ternium Mexico's Tension Leveling Line.


7.10.2009

SR-Instruments Oy is delivering the Detmaster MPH Pinhole Detection System to the Impress Deventer Plant in The Netherlands. The system will be installed on Cut-to-length Line No. 102, which maximum line speed is 450 m/min and maximum number of strokes 235 strokes/min. The Detmaster MPH system is able to detect pinholes from 10 um up to large holes and provides a signal to reject the sheets including pinholes. Thus, Detmaster MPH system will guarantee the efficiency and quality assurance at the Impress Deventer Plant's Cut-to-length Line No. 102.

Detmaster MPG Pickling Grade Measurement System

Novel Detmaster MPG system measures accurately on-line covering the entire strip surface the pickling level (nominal pickling, under pickling, over pickling) on pickling lines in order to maximize pickling line capacity and assure pickled strip quality.

Increasing the pickling line capasity and assuring pickling process output with Detmaster MPG system

SR-Instruments Oy has introduced a new, very sensitive and stable measuring technology which is capable of measuring the remaining residual scale on strip surface. The measurement is a high resolution continuous measurement covering 100% of the strip surface.

In operation the system will measure and visualize the microscopic phenomena of remaining residual scale to the operator via its user interface. Changes in the amount of residual scale of less than 2% can be visualized with the system. The real-time display and alarms indicate tot the operator the nominal pickling grade how far he is from it. Upper and lower thresholds with alarms are pre-set for all steel grades.

Process development people have calculated that this new system increases the pickling line capasity in minimum by 5%. For a 1Mton pickling line this means 50.000 tons more in productivity every year! With our systems, line speeds could be increased even by 30% momentarily. The Detmaster MPG is a stand alone system and no other investments are needed to increase the line capasity.
