TKS Dortmund Increases Quality Assurance with Latest Surface Inspection System from ISRA VISION
03/25/2013 - A new inspection system for the continuous annealing line at ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe's mill in Dortmund, Germany, has now been fitted with the latest surface inspection technique from ISRA VISION PARSYTEC.
On its continuous annealing line in Dortmund, Germany, ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe (TKS) primarily produces steel for the automotive sector. Due to challenging quality requirements in this area, TKS has been relying on ISRA VISION PARSYTEC inspection products for over 15 years. A new inspection system for the continuous annealing line has now been fitted with the latest inspection technique. The DUAL SENSOR™ technology, a combination of line scan and matrix cameras for both upside and downside inspection of the strip, ensures a continuous detection of the smallest defect types. Even extremely low-contrast defects are detected and classified automatically and reliably. The inspection system was installed during ongoing operations with only minimum standstill times. TKS' demanding customers can be absolutely sure that only 100% inspected material will leave the company's premises.
