WireProfiler

Overview

The WireProfiler is a multi-axis non oscillating mill gauge for the measuring the true profile of wire rod in-process. The gauge suitable for any hot rolled round or rebar wire rod  product.

Operating Principle

The WireProfiler uses up to 6 high performance laser micrometers, each one scanning at 12000 Hz making it the fastest rod mill gauge available today. The true cross section shape is is determined by measuring at 12 points around the circumference of the rod. The WireProfiler has a patented algorithm ensuring that the movement of the object in the measuring field does not affect the measuring accuracy.

Applications

  • Hot rolled round wire rod – complete cross section profile
  • Hot rolled rebar – core diameter and rib height measurement
  • Small diameter tubes hot or cold
