Technological Highlights

Simple and intuitive operation

  • Mechanically backward compatible with LB 6652/6752 installations
  • Compatible with LB 452 castXpert
  • For use with electrometric stirrer and brakes without signal deterioration
  • Automatic calibration rig for steel and powder level supplied

State of the art technology

  • Measures the steel level and the powder level simultaneously
  • Based on Silicon Photomultiplier (SiPM) technology
  • Industry-leading measurement cycle time, temperature stability and mechanical robustness
  • Superior safety with automatic detection and compensation if a scintillation failure should occur

Application for this measurement

Powder thickness

Precise monitoring of the powder thickness and an evenly dosing of the powder

Silicon Photomultiplier (SiPM) technology

Replacing the conventional Vacuum Photomultiplier Tube (PMT) with SiPM technology allows for a very small and compact design. With improved ruggedness, low power consumption, virtually no degradation, and built-in redundancy, SiPM technology is ideal for demanding mould level applications.

Determining the powder thickness

Discover how Berthold’s advanced radiometric solution measures the steel level and powder thickness in real time. Uncontrolled powder layers can distort meniscus readings and compromise quality. Learn how our innovative detector accurately determines both simultaneously. Our LB 6755 CONGAUGE uses a crystal array and smart algorithms to stabilize mould level and powder thickness – improving quality and reducing breakouts.
