KT500F Mold Friction

Real-Time Mold Friction Calculation for Process and Quality Control

The KT500F OnLineMOMS System with Friction adds mold/strand friction measurements to the primary casting parameters generated by the standard KT500 System. Friction is a key indicator of casting process and conditions directly inside the mold. Coupled with the KT500 accelerometer based oscillation data, mold friction provides a deeper layer of insight into casting stability, flux performance, conditions aecting quality, and potential casting events leading to a loss of production.
