Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of strip steel inspection, and in particular to a surface defect inspection device for cold-rolled cold-pickled steel strip. Background Technology

[0002] In the steel coil production system, the quality inspection station on the cold acid line is located at the exit section. Currently, quality inspectors mainly rely on visual inspection to check the surface quality of the steel strip. Under such high-speed operation, quality inspectors cannot completely detect surface defects of the steel coils running at high speeds. This results in some defects on the surface of the finished steel strip going undetected, posing a risk of missed inspections and compromising product quality.

[0003] To carefully inspect defective steel coils and take photos and videos as evidence, the steel strip at the exit coiling section needs to be stopped or run at a slow speed. If the steel strip stops or runs at a slow speed for a slightly longer time, it will cause the small looper at the pickling exit to be fully loaded, resulting in a slowdown in the process section, affecting the production rhythm of the production line, and thus affecting the output and product quality. At the same time, there are also safety risks when staff are close to inspect the coils. Utility Model Content
