Inspection systems for steel products

Logotek develops, produces and distributes professional inspection systems in particular for steel products. The extrem rugged and robust technique is therefore especially designed for a long lifetime and provides among a simple handling, excellent and very detailed picture recordings. With our systems, you ensure, that your products achieve the highest quality standards.   

Each inspection system will be integrated perfectly and as precise as possible into the yet existing production. Logotek offers complete turnkey solutions with (amongst others) surface inspection, cutting position and geometric measurements of different types of steel products. 

The TIN500

Major task of this, from the company Logotek developed inspection system, is the determination of the cutting position of the tube end. The precise calculation of the cutting position saves money and improves the quality of the produced steel tubes.

Due to a special ring-shaped arrangement of the cameras, it is possible to detect the whole profile of the tube optically to 100 %. The evaluation of the optical measurement is supported by a QuadCore industry PC which features a 64 bit operating system and the eventual evaluation software IPA (Image Processing Application). The IPA software is a product created by the company LogoTek.

The TIN500 is a system that can be used for various applications. It is easy extendable for a surface inspection or a geometric measurement.

Description of the system

The TIN500 consists of a rugged housing which has the ability to withstand high temperatures of up to 950°C, due to a fully heat insulated inside.

The system is equipped with high-resolution cameras and illumination units for the inspection of the tube end.

A Hot Metal Detector recognizes the tube end and provides the trigger signal for the cameras and the illumination units.

With the support of an exceptionally user-friendly mounted control unit and a fixed installed status signal light on top of the machine, possible faults can be realized and cleared immediately.

The external industrial PC and the user interface of the IPA software allow a simple operation. This avoids high efforts and long-term training phases for prospective operators.

Due to the Gigabit network connection, all detected data are directly evaluated and transferred to a server processor. As a result of this, data can be used for further production or statistic operations immediately.

 

The TIN500 provides following data and values

  • Exact cutting position
  • Geometry of the tube
  • Length of the tube

 

The captured data are prepared graphically and stored into an archive. Due to a visualization software which is included in the scope of supply, the operator has also access to historical data.
