Challenges in Infrared Temperature Measurement for Aluminium Rolling Processes
The aluminium rolling process is critical to the aluminium manufacturing industry, where precise temperature measurement is essential for ensuring high-quality product output and protecting equipment. This process produces aluminium coils through various methods, including cold rolling, direct casting, and continuous casting, and plays a fundamental role in determining the material's final properties.

Heat, fuel sources, and oxygen are known to be fire hazards in a shredding facility that runs unattended for a long time. Because of the friction created by the waste, heat is produced that, when combined with oxygen, can ignite flammable substances like fuels, oils, grease, and materials like paper and cardboard.
