LIMAB is a globally esteemed and acknowledged specialist in non-contact measurement systems, offering customized solutions for automated quality and process control.
The business was started in 1979 and has since then developed into one of the world leaders in laser-based sensors and systems for dimensional control and defects detection.

Headquarters are based in Göteborg, Sweden, with subsidiaries in United Kingdom, Germany and USA, complemented by certified partners for sales and support serving customers on all continents.

To ensure a highly effective industrial process, it is crucial that the manufactured products are correctly measured. LIMAB provides measurement systems for the metals industry, both for the production of long and flat products – everything from tubes and bars, billets and blooms, to larger slabs.
Our steel measuring systems provide exact measurements of dimensions in various steel mill applications, such as tube and bar OD, length and straightness, slab dimensions, and the thickness and width of steel plates and strips.
Our wide range of steel measuring equipment has many different applications – and drastic benefits!

LIMAB Benefits of LIMAB’s non-contact measuring systems:

• The systems dramatically reduce the mill set-up time and improve the production yield.
• Operators can avoid time consuming (and sometimes hazardous) manual inspections of the tubes/bars/other steel products.
• The steel measuring systems all include LIMABs own produced laser-based sensors, that are all kept in stock for spare parts deliveries.

For the measurement of long products, we offer systems for measuring seamless and welded tubes, as well as measurements for bars, blooms, and billets.

The LIMAB TubeProfiler S system can measure the outer diameter, ovality, straightness, length and true shape of the tube. The LIMAB BarProfiler 3D measures the complete bar dimensions, including diameter and ovality, shape irregularities like flat-spots, as well as under- and overfills.

For the measurements of flat products LIMAB offers systems for measuring slabs, heavy plates, and strips. Our SlabProfiler 3D is developed to give plant management and operators full control over the caster operation.

The SlabProfiler 3D instantly recognizes dimensional problems of the slabs, such as width, edge profile, edge height, edge concavity/convexity, and camber. This steel measuring equipment is suitable for both cold and hot rolling mill applications.
