Abstract

The melting process in a furnace cannot be monitored by contact sensors due to the high temperatures. Thus, the IFUM investigates a method for monitoring the melting process by optical sensors. An optical measuring system will monitor the fuse bridge despite the red-hot furnace walls. Next, the material state during the melting process or the change in height of the aluminum block is elaborated by an image analysis of the recordings to detect any melt residues on the fuse bridge. Thus, the opening of the furnace door to determine the amount of residual aluminum, which always causes high energy losses, can largely be avoided. Copyright Springer-VDI-Verlag GmbH & Co.
