The 4D EAGLE S is an advanced laser gauge for rolling mills that combines classifying surface inspection with precise digital profile measurement – in one powerful system. Jointly engineered by KOCKS and LAP, it gives long product producers a clear view on quality in real time and provides the data foundation for smarter, more transparent rolling.
KOCKS and LAP share decades of experience as partners to the steel industry – KOCKS as pioneer in 3‑roll technology, LAP as an expert in non‑contact laser systems.
With 4D EAGLE S, both companies have combined their strengths to create a measuring solution that meets the high demands of modern long product mills: robust hardware, precise laser technology and powerful domain-specific software in a single, integrated system.
Using laser light sectioning, the system projects laser lines onto the material surface. High‑resolution cameras and advanced image processing, enhanced by machine learning, record the full profile and even small surface defects – at very high measuring frequencies. This hybrid approach turns the gauge into a central element of quality assurance for round, hexagonal, square and flat products.

The SMART CORE X software provides a modern, user‑friendly interface for monitoring, analysis and process control. It turns measurement data into actionable information directly at the line.
Profile values, tolerance bands and key parameters can be tracked over the entire product length, with warnings, notes and alarms when profile or surface quality deviate from production specifications. Operators gain a clear, intuitive overview that supports faster and more informed decisions.
The 4D EAGLE S is available in different sizes, allowing it to be used for various dimensional ranges and application scenarios in the rolling mill. Each system consists of the hardware and the associated software suite for in-depth analysis and data processing.
Behind every strong promise stand clear facts and figures. The key technical data of the 4D EAGLE S gives an overview of its capabilities. Contact us if any specific questions arise.
