A major steel company faced the challenge of precisely measuring the deflection of 24-meter beams during the cold rolling process. Manual measurement was time-consuming, prone to errors, and compromised both the efficiency and quality of the final product. The need arose for an automated solution to optimize the inspection process, ensuring higher precision and speed.

To meet this demand, TCX developed a solution using Vision Control, which employs computational vision to monitor and automatically measure the beam deflection. With three strategically positioned cameras, the system can detect deformations with an accuracy of up to 2 mm, allowing operators to quickly identify any deviations.

Since the implementation of Vision Control, the steel company has achieved significant gains in quality and efficiency. The automated system reduced inspection time, eliminating the need for manual measurements and minimizing rework. Quality control is now faster and more precise, ensuring that the beams meet the rigorous standards of the steel industry.
