The highly competitive Steel industry anticipates to grow at a steady and slow pace for several years, despite some residual overcapacity. However, the trend toward a circular economy aimed at continued use of resources and elimination of waste, along with enhanced Corporate Social Responsibility, may sustain the pace without a further economic contraction.
Steel manufacturing involves extreme temperatures, high pressures, and challenging process conditions. Panametrics offers rugged flow and moisture measurement technologies designed to perform reliably in these demanding environments. Our ultrasonic flowmeters and moisture analyzers help monitor critical utilities like steam, compressed air, and cooling water, ensuring process efficiency and equipment protection.
The Steel industry faces a series of on-going challenges to manage and optimize its energy usage, efficiency and compliance, with growing stringent environmental regulations that require emissions monitoring to address climate change.
The demanding environment of a metal processing facility requires heavy-duty industrial instrumentation. Metal parts, alloys and sheet steel are processed in furnaces at elevated temperatures. Controlled atmospheres are used to infuse desired properties and in pretreatment for depositing coatings. In these applications, measuring and controlling Moisture, Hydrogen and Oxygen levels is critical.
