Aluminium temperature measurement developments

Previously in Aluminium International Today, Richard Gagg discussed the importance of accurate temperature measurements for modern aluminium extrusions. In this article, he discusses parallel developments, which now enable non-contact temperature sensors to automatically and dynamically track and accommodate physical process changes as they occur. Higher quality extrusions and increased ...

Why Use Purge Air? And What Practicalities to Consider.

Many AMETEK Land instruments use purge air, in the post I am going to explain the purpose and some of the practicalities surrounding this technology. In general, purge air is used on optical instruments such as emissions monitors and pyrometers which are mounted on industrial processes. It is important to keep the optical surfaces of such instruments clean, as contamination can affect their ...
