Precision Taper Measurement to Improve Slab Quality

The Taper Checker is a robust and relatively simple digital measurement system designed to address critical challenges in steel casting. Ensuring precise taper adjustment for slab casters is essential to minimize casting defects and improve the surface quality of slabs. The system utilizes long-term stable inclinometers to provide precise measurements of the mold's lateral surfaces, ensuring the correct taper is achieved. It provides steel experts with the accuracy and reliability needed to maintain optimal casting conditions, thereby reducing the risk of breakouts and enhancing overall production efficiency.

In the demanding environment of steel casting, achieving precise taper adjustment is crucial. The Taper Checker offers a high-resolution measurement system that ensures accurate taper readings for slab casters. This robust tool is equipped with long-term stable inclinometers, providing reliable data even under harsh operational conditions. Its modular block design allows for easy adaptation to various mold configurations, ensuring that each measurement is tailored to specific plant requirements.

With a measuring range of ±52 mm/m and an accuracy of ±0.1 mm/m, the Taper Checker stands out as a vital instrument for maintaining casting quality. Designed for use in any conventional slab caster, the Taper Checker can be adapted to specific customer needs and mold configurations without substantial costs.

This comprehensive tool enhances the quality of slabs and optimizes the overall efficiency of the casting process. By investing in the Taper Checker, steel plants can ensure superior casting performance and product quality, ultimately leading to increased productivity and reduced operational costs.
