Designed for all casting applications
GAMMAcast detectors are characterized by their excellent sensitivity, leading to a significant reduction in source size. The robust detector design and the PlugProtect cable connection ensure highest mechanical stability and longest lifetime.
As a direct request from several customers in the steel industry, we also offer a shorter version of the LB 6760 GAMMAcast detector.
Whitepaper
Measuring the steel level in continuous casting
Radiometric based mould level measurement is the dominating technology for measuring the steel level in continuous casting. Herein we discuss performance, statistical variation, influencing factors, source selection, and a recent development that enables the simultaneous measurement of casting powder layer thickness.
