MouldCORE™
Mould Taper & Inner Geometry Measurement
A high-accuracy laser measurement system for inspecting casting mould taper, inner geometry and overall mould condition, providing precise dimensional analysis for continuous casting operations.
Overview
Precision measurement for casting mould quality.
Mould geometry has a direct effect on billet quality, shell formation, casting stability and breakout risk.
MouldCORE® measures the inner geometry and taper condition of continuous casting moulds using high-accuracy laser sensors and dedicated analysis software.
The system helps maintenance and production teams evaluate mould condition before production, track mould wear over time and make better decisions about mould usage and replacement.
Why MouldCORE™
Accurate mould inspection before casting problems appear.
MouldCORE™ provides accurate, repeatable and software-supported mould geometry inspection for continuous casting plants that require stronger quality control and safer production.
Laser Accuracy
High-resolution laser measurement for detailed inner geometry inspection.
Taper Analysis
Measures mould taper profile and helps verify mould condition before production.
Quality Control
Supports billet quality control by detecting mould-related geometry problems.
Breakout Prevention
Helps identify mould wear and geometry issues that can increase operational risk.
How It Works
Laser-based scanning with dedicated analysis software.
MouldCORE® scans the inner mould surface with precision laser sensors. The measurement data is processed by the software to calculate taper, geometry deviations and mould condition indicators.
