Data Processing

The LSC processor can also be supplied with analog output cards to facilitate integration of the Landscan derived thermal information with the control system.

Retrofitting 4, 8 or 12 channels of analog outputs can be easily achieved locally, as and when required with no requirement to return the unit for a factory upgrade.

LANDSCAN AND LSP

LANDSCAN AND LSP systems are increasingly being used to solve temperature measurement problems in a wide variety of industries and applications, some of which are listed below:

• Hot strip and hot plate mill Rougher, edge heaters, coil box, finishing stands, gauging cold correction, coiler
• Beam, billet and sections mill Rail head, beam roughing and finishing, gauging cold correction
• Rod/wire mill Pre-coiler, cooling conveyor
• Continuous, thin strip and aluminum casting Spray chamber, rougher and induction heater
  exit, crop shear
• Reheat furnace Furnace exit
• Welding Turbine shaft and induction pipe welding
• Galvanizing Snout, furnace, top roll
• Galvanneal Entry dip, top roll
• Continuous annealing lines Cooling and heating
• Glass Float, forming and toughening
• Paper Web and roll
• Research and development

Low-Emissivity Coated Components

A Landscan sensor head is normally mounted on a Mounting Plate on the process center-line, below the exit of the heating section immediately prior to the shaping dies.

Product speed through the scan plane is medium to fast; requiring fast scan rates in the range of 25 to 50Hz.

Side Windows

The Landscan sensor head, sealed in a rugged housing, is mounted on the process center-line and above the exit of the heating section prior to the shaping dies.

Product speed is fast to very fast, requiring faster scan rates in the range of 50 to 100Hz.
Mounting the scanner underneath the process allows the sensor head to scan the uncoated underside of the glass components.

These sensor head installations demand excellent scan alignment and the best quality optics available (small target spot diameters with very low levels of optical aberration) as sighting is normally between a pair of closely-spaced support rollers immediately prior to the shaping dies.

Wind Shields

The Landscan or LSP5 sensor head is normally mounted in a rugged housing on the process center-line, above the exit of the heating section.

Product speed is medium to fast; requiring fast scan rates in the range of 25 to 50Hz.
