In-line measurement from Zumbach SOLUTIONS for in-line measurement and control of tubes, pipes and profiles will be the focus of Zumbach’s exhibition stand, including the Profilemaster ® and Steelmaster in-line measurement solutions for dimensions and shape. 400 and 800 complete the line of hot and cold in-process gauges for rounds up to diameter 600mm (23.62") or profiles of up to 550mm (21.65") edge lengths. Profilemaster gauges are based on the principle of light-section technology and machine vision, and can handle any shape or profile.

customer and product. The systems are best suited to the continuous measurement and monitoring of dimensions and the complete cross- section of profiles made of steel, metal, plastics or rubber. The new series of Steelmaster hot and cold gauges, based on high-speed laser scanning, now offers up to 12,000 measurements per second, with new calibrated single scan (CSS) technology. This results in a highly accurate and fast non-contact measurement of diameter, ovality and width/height at production speeds of 100m/s (19,685 ft/min). Steelmaster gauges are available in static (SMS models), oscillating (SMO models) or rotating (SMR models) configurations, for diameters of up to 500mm (20") or beyond, upon request.

Makers of seamless pipe, tube, profiles and bars now have access to Zumbach gauges, which have been enhanced to offer more significant advantages. New Profilemaster models SPS 200,

Relevant dimensions can be entered into the program and are then monitored during the production run at all times. Typical applications are hot seamless

pipe and profiles of any kind, cold rolled/ welded tubes and pipes (ERW) and inspection stations for tube, pipe, profiles and bar. Profilemaster sys- tems are available in multiple designs, depending on the requirements of the

Evolution in cutting technology FRAMAG Industrieanlagenbau has specialised in cutting technology for more than 35 years. To improve torch cutting technology, the company has developed the new Evolution cutting nozzle programme. Due to the new technology, framag can minimise the cutting kerf to the complete range of cutting thickness by improved cutting quality and increased cutting speed. The

“The FCN-Nozzles improve the cutting quality by increased cutting speed and lowered gas consumption.” The FCN cutting nozzle Evolution can cut carbon steel as well as stainless steel grades. Up to a nominal cutting thickness of 200mm framag advises the use of FCN 150, while FCN 300 is designed for nominal cutting thicknesses up to 300mm. framag Industrieanlagenbau GmbH – Austria Fax: +43 7683 5040 86

utility consumption (cutting oxygen, heating gas and oxygen) can also be reduced. “In conjunction with the ongoing endeavour for improvements, framag has developed a new generation of nozzles and successfully tested at long term trials at Salzgitter Flachstahl GmbH,” said P Müller, head of continuous casting machines and discharge area at Salzgitter Flachstahl GmbH.
