THE EAGLE‘S EYE ON QUALITY COMBINED PROFILE MEASUREMENT AND SURFACE INSPECTION

THE STEEL INDUSTRY IS HEADING TOWARDS DIGITALIZATION Rolling mills for the production of long products are increasingly equipped with measurement and automation technology. Continuous innovation enables ever more precise measurements at ever higher speeds and ever shorter reaction times. In this context, laser measuring systems are particularly suitable in rolling mills for digital profile measurement and surface inspection when rolling long products. They provide reliable process data and have thus become important elements in quality assurance in an era of the Industrial Internet of Things.

JOINING FORCES FOR INNOVATION KOCKS and LAP look back on a long history as mutual market companions. Unique experiences put both companies in a position to bring a product to market that meets the high demands of modern rolling mills worldwide. LAP has been leading in the field of laser measurement systems for the steel industry for decades. As a specialist in 3-roll technology for the precise production of special bars, KOCKS contributes its in-depth expertise and has made its mark on developing measuring systems for the steel industry with its own solutions.

PIONEERS WITH A PRECISION MINDSET The collaboration enables the teams of both firms to concentrate intensely on the topic of quality assurance by employing digital measurement technology. Additionally, both partners have access to the entire infrastructure of KOCKS and LAP, for example, for global sales and service.

THE PIONEER IN 3-ROLL TECHNOLOGY The KOCKS Group, headquartered in Germany, is a global supplier of rolling mill equipment for the steel industry. Founded in 1946, KOCKS has developed into a globally recognized brand. With the KOCKS 3-roll technology, the company has built up a reputation as an innovator. Its core competencies include consulting, planning, development, design, delivery, assembly and commissioning of rolling mills, as well as the revamping and modernization of existing plants. In the course of the digital transformation, KOCKS is actively driving the change from product to...

... AND THE EXPERT IN LASER MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS Since 1984, LAP has been the expert in non-contact laser measurement systems for rolling mills. During the rolling process, LAP‘s laser systems measure the contour and thickness of steel products, including wire, tube, bar, profile, and strip steel. Integrating LAP systems in the rolling mill allows the measurement of correct dimensions during operation and provides recommendations for optimum adjustment of the rolling stands. This enables real-time quality control and ensures production reliability. The user can react immediately to...
