METHOD FOR MEASURING WEAR IN THE REFRACTORY LINING OF A METALLURGICAL MELTING VESSEL

摘要

A method of a method for measuring wear in the lining of a metallurgical melting vessel such as a steel converter, by a laser scanner. A laser having a contouring system on a cart can be moved between measurements. The laser contouring system references three permanent marks behind the cart and two temporary marks positioned near the vessel. The distances from the movable cart to each of the five marks is determined during an initial measurement by the contouring system. Every time the cart is moved and a new measurement is taken, the contouring system scans the vessel and the two temporary marks but not the permanent marks .
