Crystallizer’s Desks Surface Diagnostics with Usage of Robotic System

Abstract

Abstract Discussed problems are solved in Arcelor Mittal Ostrava a.s. company. VSB-TU Ostrava has its share on this solution in the frame of grant project TIP. The project has several goals, which relate with primary cooling system area in CSCD (Continuous Steel Casting Device). One target is concerned about surface quality of crystallizer’s desks, also from point of view of its quality evaluation.in terms of project solution was solved a crystallizer’s desks defects catalogue and methodology of their evaluation. Also was made methodology for quality evaluation of narrow crystallizer’s desks, which are dismantled in maintenance area. There were proposed a laser scanning of the crystallizer’s desks surface with usage of Laser sensor. In cooperation with DASFOS CZ, s.r.o. was proposed new method of inner crystallizer’s chamber measuring. In this paper are presented partial results of this solution, including first results from prototyped measuring device.
