Abstract

PURPOSE:To measure coating film thickness in on-line by inverstigating relation between the luminance of reflected light on the surface of a casting belt and the coating film thickness. CONSTITUTION:As the light at the part of thick coating film thickness is irregularly reflected, there is no glossness and reversely, in the part of thin coating film thickness or no coating part, the reflection ratio of the light is large. Therefore, the film thickness of coating material sprayed on the surface of casting belt 10 photographed with a CCD camera 14, and the outputs of respective picture elements in an image signal are shown in the reverse proportion. By this invention, the distribution of film thickness can be always observed during operating in on-line. By this method, the development of breakout caused by defective coating can be prevented from happening, and by controlling pressure in the coating nozzle so as to uniformize the film thickness, the generation of crack, surface fold and flaw caused by uneven coating is prevented.

In a twin-belt type continuous casting machine, a coating film of powder such as zirconia (2rO□) is applied to the casting belt so that the heat of the molten metal is not directly transferred to the metal casting belt. This coating film is formed by spraying a coating material in the form of a slurry onto the surface of a moving casting belt and drying it by heating. In this case, if the thickness distribution of the coating film becomes uneven due to uneven pressure or other causes during spraying, the temperature distribution of the slab will become uneven, causing plate cracks and scratches, resulting in extreme In some cases, slab breakout occurs.

A rod-shaped light source 12 such as a fluorescent lamp is arranged above the upper roll 24 and illuminates the surface of the casting belt 10 after being heated and dried. The CCD camera 14 is installed at a position where it receives the reflected light from the rod-shaped light source 12 reflected on the casting belt 10. Therefore, the intensity of each pixel of the image signal formed by the CCD camera 14 increases as the coating thickness decreases, and as the coating thickness increases, diffuse reflection increases and the intensity of reflected light decreases. The distribution measurement display device 16 momentarily displays and outputs the intensity of pixels on a straight line perpendicular to the feeding direction of the casting belt 10 out of the intensity of each pixel as representing the film thickness and its distribution. Alternatively, the structure may be such that the relationship between pixel intensity and film thickness is determined in advance by measurement and stored, the pixel intensity is converted to a film thickness value based on that relationship, and the converted value is displayed and output. You can also do it.
