Development of a System Based on an Artificial Vision to Determine the Length of Billets in the Cutting Process in Steel Mills

Abstract:

In the steel industry, it is not possible to measure billets’ length at the end of the cutting process of a continuous casting machine, due to the high temperatures. To have this measure the billets have to have natural cooling for 24 h. The system developed captures an image of the billets and gets its length in real-time using the AdaBoost algorithm, this algorithm is an artificial vision application through the color segmentation method in HSV space. The system allows obtaining a calculated length near to 99% of the real.
