For over 50 years, Berthold Technologies has been the world leader in measuring mold level with over 3,500 strands worldwide as well as producing systems for measuring in coke, sinter and iron ore.  In addition, the company offers a wide range of non-contact measurements for bulk flow, pickling acid analysis and hopper level.  Reliability, repeatability, and a continued focus on customer support and satisfaction have made Berthold a standard in the steel industry on a global scale. 

Berthold Technologies will continue to supply the LB 352 series of mould level measurement products as well as the LB 350 Neutron Moisture meter  for the foreseeable future. However, if you are interested in seeing the next generation of Berthold Technologies', just click here.

The LB 352 Mold Level gauge. Used throughout the industry, the LB 352 uses highly sophisticated and extremely rugged scintillation detectors to measure the level of steel in molds.  By using these highly sensitive and patented detectors, Berthold Technologies can use extremely low radiometric sources and still deliver superior and fast measurement performance.

The LB 350 Neutron Moisture Meter is fast becoming the Industry standard for moisture measurement in a variety of processes and conditions.  Some of the applications currently in use are those for Coke, Sinter and Iron Ore. Available in both insertion probe and surface mount models, the LB 350 can provide highly accurate measurements down 0.5% moisture.

In addition, Berthold Technologies has a strategic partnership with Radiametrics in Cleveland, Ohio to provide sales support and assistance to its steel customers in the United States and Canada.

In addition to the three primary products listed above, Berthold Technologies has other products with significant benefits to steel producers.

The LB 442 Bulk Flow Meter is an excellent way of providing accurate and repeatable measurement for a wide variety of materials. Using non-contacting ,non-intrusive technology (and non-moving parts) the LB 442 can be used on belts, screw conveyors and other material conveyances.
