Resumo

The ShapeMon Billet Bloom technology is an advanced image processing system to measure long products with rectangular or square shape under hot conditions coming directly from the caster. The system can calculate the cross section and the length and speed of the billet and gives optical images of the long product. An important fact compared with state-of-the-art devices is that the measurement is executed along the complete product and not only from head and/or tail end (1). This paper will include a first analysis based on the feedback coming from the sites (2) where it is installed. Surprising insights like the change of rhomboidity along one billet could be made visible. 2 major possible installation positions are discussed to understand the properties of each.
