THICKNESS CHECK CALIX
CALIX - Our solution for non-contact thickness measurement of flat products
YOUR GUARANTEE OF QUALITY FOR THE THICKNESS MEASUREMENT OF SHEET METAL AND STRIP STEEL
For the manufacturing of a perfect cold strip, many factors are crucial. Our measuring frames specifically check the thickness-related quality parameters of the strip steel or steel sheet. Free of radioactive radiation, laser sensors are used in the cold strip areas that do not require protection measures with laser class 2, or only low precautions when using laser class 3B sensors.
The installation of our measurement systems is quick and uncomplicated for our customers. The CALIX is integrated into the line with its C-shaped frame across the material flow. Our solutions with and without traversing determine all important parameters for quality assurance, including strip thickness, edge thickness, wedge or cambering, and measure the complete thickness profile. Thus, you have full process control in the current production.

STRAIGHTNESS CHECK X-LINE
LAP's laser gauge for straightness measurement of bars and tubes
PRECISE STRAIGHTNESS MEASUREMENT OF ROUND WORKPIECES
With our innovative laser technology, you can check the straightness of a round profile inline and with a single measuring routine. The measuring frame with will be installed directly in your existing line and contains at least three pairs of measuring sensors. The object rolls through the measurement system in the inspection process and is scanned. The measurement result shows the deviation of the straightness in mm related to a reference length of one meter. Optionally, you can determine additional parameters such as length and ovality of the object.
Together for your success
This process is unique on the market and was developed with our partner Sema Systemtechnik. You receive a verifiable quality assurance of your rods or pipes in the current production. The modular design allows individual configurability and can be easily integrated into the existing system. Benefit from the competence and experience of two strong partners.
FEATURES OF THE STRAIGHTNESS CHECK X-LINE
FLEXIBLE PRODUCT SIZES
The controlled material guidance during the entire production process allows rods and tubes of different sizes and lengths to be tested without difficulty.
NON-CONTACT MEASUREMENT
With our optical method, you can detect the straightness non-destructively and avoid any mechanical wear on the measuring system or the product.
MATERIAL INDEPENDENT
The Straightness Check X-Line measures independently of physical or chemical material properties, color or reflectance. The measuring system can thus be used flexibly.
X-LINE SOFTWARE
The intuitive software reads the measured values and calculates the straightness and the diameter during the process. The measurement results are evaluated based on the product specifications and tolerance violations signaled via digital outputs.
CONTOUR CHECK SHAPE
3D measurement of rolled long products by means of laser light section sensors
THE PIONEERING MEASUREMENT SYSTEM FOR OPTICAL CONTOUR CAPTURING AND SURFACE INSPECTION OF YOUR STEEL PROFILE.
Contour Check Shape has proven itself in hot rolling of long products and is an essential part of the rolling process in many factories. It checks hot and cold steel profiles with the help of three-dimensional surface reconstruction. Thus, it records geometrical errors due to rolling defects including surface defects like scale seams, shells or roller outbreaks.
The innovation lies in the optimized laser light section sensors which LAP constructs with its own laser technique and high-end industry cameras. Four cameras continously scan an object and form up to 2000 complete profiles per second at the same time. The camera with high-speed image recording captures the laser line while the often still glowing steel enters the measuring field. The laser light section sensors are even able to measure in indentations, corners, and between webs, Regardless of the profile form (round, square, flat or hexagonal), the Contour Check Shape supports your production process and verifiably reduces scrap. One additional feature is the precise measurement of rebar whereby measuring values like the contour of the core, the rib height and the weight per meter are accurately calculated.

FEATURES OF THE CONTOUR CHECK SHAPE
QUALITY CONTROL
Only quality material which meets your specifications leaves the factory, giving you full process control and increased efficiency.
ROLLING DEFECTS RECOGNITION
The system automatically detects and classifies rolling errors so that the operator can make optimum adjustments to the rollers.
SURFACE DETECTION
The evaluation of the surface quality enables the classification of the severity of the defects, marks the specific clusters and, if necessary, adjusts the material.
SOFTWARE SMART CORE PRO
The software offers the unique functionality of virtually rotating a round profile into alignment of the rolling mill to directly measure the real rolling defect. You can also configure the user interface individually.

CONTOUR CHECK ROUND & EDGE
Robust laser measurement system for contour detection of round and square profiles
OUR WORLDWIDE APPROVED SOLUTION FOR REAL-TIME PROFILE MEASUREMENT
Laser measuring systems are of central importance for rolling mills to check the contours of steel profile for defects during the production process. A slight deformation on the surface of the profiles reduces the quality of the product, and in the worst case, a broken roll can even destroy the entire batch. With our systems Contour Check Round & Edge you identify and evaluate deviations at an early stage. Increase the process efficiency of your production - regardless of temperature and profile shape.
Contour Check Round is the standard solution for measuring round profiles and rebar. Three- and six-axis versions can also accurately record profiles from three point rolling processes.
Contour Check Edge uses sensors on a base plate that rotates in an oscillating manner. In this way, square, flat or hexagonal profiles are measured. Both systems are based technically on the shadowing principle.
CONTOUR CHECK EDGE FOR REBAR, ROUND, RECTANGULAR AND HEXAGONAL PROFILES

DEFECT VISUALIZATION IN REAL TIME
Tolerance deviations and rolling errors are visualized early. This increases your production quality and allows you to intervene in time, even before scrap occurs.
ARCHIVING
All values are stored in a database. You have access to the measured values for all orders, and loose or individual products. For analysis purposes, you can view all data again at any time.
OPTIMIZED PRODUCTION CONTROL
The use of our measurement system and the associated real-time control of your production verifiably optimize the entire production process.
