Role of Metrology in Iron & Steel

Purpose

• Ensures dimensional and structural accuracy of steel products
• Monitors quality at various stages: casting, rolling, machining, and assembly
• Detects surface and internal defects for safety-critical applications
• Supports compliance with global material and quality standards (ASTM, ISO, EN

Common Applications

• Raw Material Inspection
  • Scrap analysis, billet and ingot size verification

• Hot & Cold Rolling Mill Monitoring
  • Sheet thickness, width, flatness, and profile measurements

• Finished Product Inspection
  • Pipes, rods, bars, plates, coils, and structural sections
  • Weld seam quality, surface integrity, and dimensional tolerances

• Tool & Die Maintenance
  • Measurement of wear and deformation in rollers, dies, and molds
