Tubos Reunidos
Tubos Reunidos uses a Solutionix scanner to obtain greater reliability in its measurements.
Technology: Solutionix CS2+ scanner
Sector: Petroleum
"Our main problem was not having great precision and repeatability in the measurements we made by hand, and in order to provide value and quality to our customers, it was an aspect to improve."

Tubos Reunidos is a global leader in specialty niche segments of seamless tubular steel products. With 120 years of history and a presence in more than 100 countries, this company detected the need to implement a system that would allow the extraction of measurements both from the inside of the tubes (the end is damaged by the cut) and from the outside of the tubes.
Through the use of AI and simulation / interaction tools, they have managed to develop a system for the digitalization and automatic analysis of the geometry of the tubes produced that, first, digitizes tube specimens to obtain a detailed digital model of their outer surface and interior, and then analyzes those models to obtain quality parameters.
The Tubispec Project was born from the Lamination Department, due to the need to have greater reliability in the measurements made of the tubes, previously carried out by hand. Digitization of the specimen and obtaining a 3D image of the inner and outer surface of the tube through a geometric analysis.
Sariki supplied the Solutionix CS2 + structured light scanner
"This solution allows us to make measurements much faster, much more agile and therefore we can take actions in lamination in a much more efficient way."
