KT900 HR TemperaturePROFILE

High Resolution Fiber Optic Mold Temperature Mapping System

The KT900 HR TemperaturePROFILE System is a high-resolution fiber optic mold temperature measurement system providing data for precise temperature mapping of mold faces while casting. Fiber sensors are embedded in the mold coppers in both vertical and horizontal orientations creating a customized measurement grid based on requirements.

Mold temperature is a primary indicator of the solidifying shell as it moves through the mold. The temperature measurements indicate the condition of lubrication and heat removal which directly relate to steel quality and casting stability. The KT900 System provides accurate breakout prevention capabilities and detects conditions leading to crack formation and surface defects for prevention.
