Continuous Annealing
Application of Landscan to Continuous Strip Processing Lines has been a growth area, with over 50 Landscan installations world-wide.
Plants producing high grade material with demanding consistency requirements for use in automotive body parts or for white goods, have quickly recognized that the enhanced information and detailed process data from a Landscan system is critically important in meeting today's Quality Assurance objectives.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS:
- Yield enhancements attributable to more consistent product temperature distributions.
- Database - trending for QA, statistical summaries, and downstream customers' Certificates of Conformity etc.
- Enhanced understanding by Process Development and Research of the coil coating process leading to more effective problem solving and enhance efficiency.
- Galvanizing - Top of snout location - analogue outputs from a Landscan system feed furnace damper controls. The resulting even temperature profile across the strip results in a uniform coating thickness.
