Abstract

The detection and documentation of surface defects in the production of steel strip is crucial to deliver a high quality product to the customer and essential for the optimization of production processes through direct conclusion on the origin of the error. For this reason Surface Inspection Systems (SIS) are used by all the leading steel producers in various stages of their production. SIS have for some years been a tightly integrated tool for monitoring the quality of the steel surface and to support the quality assurance. Surface inspection system at the continuous pickling line at Salzgitter Flachstahl GmbH is presented. Detection settings and their effects on the classification performance are examined. Aberration over the bandwidth and displacement between two inspection angles because of thickness variations are analyzed. Examples of „Artificial Defects“, such as shell, hole, scratch, welding seam with hole, geometrical forms are observed as well as density distribution of defects A and B from image library and density distribution of defects A and B from inspection results. Inspection result of the same side with slightly different classifiers allowed to distinguish the surfaces with some critical defects and with many critical defects. Data sources for statistical monitoring and analysis are generalized.
