The short-wave thermoIMAGER TIM M thermal imaging cameras are mainly used in the metal processing industry. Due to its short-wave measuring wavelength, these infrared cameras are ideal for temperature monitoring during melting, hardening and forming processes.

The high-performance optoNCDT ILR2250 laser distance sensor is used whenever large measuring ranges and high accuracy are required. The optoNCDT ILR2250 can be installed at distances up to 100 m, and even up to 150 m with a reflector film. This sensor impresses when measuring dark, structured and poorly reflecting surfaces, while providing stable measurement results to millimeter accuracy. The optoNCDT ILR2250 laser distance sensor is used in transportation, logistics and conveyance technologies as well as automation and the metals industry. This is where the sensor enables reliable measurement results even when it is, e.g., installed at a safe distance from heat emitting measuring objects. In addition, difficult-to-access places via mirrors or through glass sheets can be detected.

For the steel and aluminum industry, Micro-Epsilon offers innovative measuring and inspection systems for thickness, profile and surface measurements. Performance and quality, as well as reliability of products and services have made Micro-Epsilon one of the leading suppliers of inspection systems for optical thickness measurement used in the metals industry. Our non-contact thickness measuring systems are used wherever high-precision thickness monitoring is required for control and quality assurance. Both in hot rolling mills, in continuous casting plants and in cold rolling mills and service centers, the Micro-Epsilon measuring systems operate reliably and with maximum precision. Numerous, successful installations in 13 countries around the world in milling lines and processing lines speak for themselves.

Matthews Marking Systems offers specialized inkjet and software solutions for the metal industry which can handle high temperatures, oily or dusty surfaces and changing material compositions. The MPERIA® V-Series enables clear marking on various materials and can be integrated into production systems. It is particularly suitable for machine builders and OEMs, with benefits such as specialty inks, low maintenance, high availability, robust design and flexible printhead mounting. Matthews' specialty inks are highly adhesive, fast drying and temperature resistant, ideal for aerospace and marine applications. The V-Series printheads are durable, low maintenance and enable automated cleaning processes. Large ink containers reduce maintenance cycles. The MPERIA® V-Series integrates into existing production lines and enables printing from different angles. Central control is provided by the MPERIA® universal controller, also in a version for harsh environments.

The latest addition to the RUF Maschinenbau portfolio, the low-cost RUF Formica, is a new briquetting system designed for the metals industries. Configured for small to mid sized batches in a wide range of applications, it frees a lot of storage space and simplifies logistics, making it in addition an attractive investment for production companies generating only small chip quantities.
