Advanced Temperature Monitoring in Aluminum and Non-Ferrous Materials
Temperature Monitoring in Aluminum and Non-Ferrous metals is an integral part of the production line. Successful temperature measurement of ‘non-grey body’ materials, such as aluminum, requires using multi-wavelength sensors to compensate for the complex emissivity characteristics of these materials. Aluminum’s emissivity varies depending on factors like alloy composition, surface oxidation, texture, contamination, and crystal structure. These variations make it essential to use advanced, non-contact pyrometers to ensure reliable thermal monitoring throughout the extrusion, rolling, and casting processes
