Temperature measurement for the steel industry
Successful steel production requires that the materials have the right temperature throughout the process. If the material does not have the correct temperature during production, it can result in lower quality in the final product, which ultimately can reduce production yield.
Temperature Measurement in Hot Rolled Steel
Hot rolling, also known as hot rolling, is a processing method used to create steel products in the desired shapes.
Temperature measurements are crucial to ensure product quality and consistency as well as increase production yield.
To achieve the best result, temperature measurements must be performed throughout the process. By ensuring an even temperature balance across production, you ensure uniform grain size.

How to Measure Temperature in Steel Production?
When measuring temperature in steel, high temperatures are involved, and it is therefore important to have the right tools developed for the purpose. With infrared temperature measurement, you can safely and accurately measure the temperature and thus ensure the quality of production.
Infrared Temperature Measurement in Steel
Infrared thermometers, also called pyrometers, have been used in steelworks for over 60 years. And there is a very special reason for that. They offer many advantages compared to other measuring tools – such as thermocouples. An infrared thermometer is a non-contact solution that can measure temperature from a distance, reducing the risk of damage.
Since this type of thermometer does not touch the surface, it can accurately measure moving objects. In comparison, a thermocouple is often affected by the surface, which generates heat and therefore provides inaccurate measurements.
Flexible Solution in High Quality
An infrared thermometer is both a flexible and fast solution. With extremely fast response times of just milliseconds, they are very useful for measuring fast-moving items.
Today, steelworks will not compromise on quality – and there is no reason to. Complete temperature measurement with line scanners and process thermal cameras provides a comprehensive picture of the product’s temperature distribution. With this information, you get more precise process control, resulting in improved quality products and satisfied customers
