Part Description:Steel pipe cross section.
Industry:Metal Processing
Inspection Type:Measurement

Summary
A steel company wants to inspect each pipe made to make sure it is the correct diameter, thickness, and roundness. The pipe will be inspected as it is rolling down a transfer system to be cooled off. The pipe stops in the process and is pressed between three large rollers to correct any roundness problems that it may have. Hence, the pipe will be in the same position every inspection. A telecentric lens was used to reduce barrel distortion for proper measurement.The inspection was implemented with measurement SoftSensors. The roundness was checked with a circle measurement tool. The distance measurement line was used to check the diameter and thickness.
