“When rebuilding one of our clamshell furnaces we opted for four Impac ISR 6 pyrometers for precise temperature measurement. I am very impressed with the quality of every component from the cooling jackets to the sensors themselves, which seem exceptionally well made. I would not hesitate to contact Control Metrix in the future for any other applications that I may need help/equipment for.”
In the demanding world of steel production and rolling where plants run 24/7 in harsh conditions, precision measurement are mission critical. Without reliable in-process measurement systems, manufacturers risk higher energy costs, production waste, inconsistent product quality and reputational damage.
At Control Metrix, we specialise in delivering robust, non-contact measurement and control systems that thrive in these extreme environments. Our solutions give steel mills and down stream finishing processes real-time control over critical parameters, helping maintain efficiency, consistency and providing our customers with a competitive advantage.
Why Measurement Matters in Metal Production
- Continuous operation, minimal maintenance – Our systems are engineered to cope with temperature extremes, dust, vibration, without requiring constant recalibration.
- Reduce material waste & energy loss – Accurate control of variables means fewer scrapped products and more efficient energy usage.
- Ensure product consistency – Precise control over temperature, dimension, and speed reduces variability and strengthens confidence in your output.
- Speed to correction – Real-time data lets you detect drift and correct for process faults early.

What We Measure & Control
Temperature & Thermal Imaging
We offer a selection of non-contact pyrometers and thermal imaging systems (e.g. Impac Pyrometers, Mikron) to track surface and in-process temperatures. These instrument are ideal for furnace monitoring, heat treatment, annealing, and controlling thermal zones in rolling, casting, or reheating.
Speed & Length Measurement
Using laser-based measurement systems, the LaserSpeed Pro, will measure measure the absolute speed and length of any process whether continuous casting, hot or cold rolling or downs stream finishing.
Process Control via Power & Heat
Beyond measurement, we integrate SCR thyristor power controllers and related control systems to close the loop between measurement and actuation. This helps maintain setpoints more tightly, reduces overshoot, and improves overall efficiency.
