Speed measurement in rolling mills for thickness control

According to the law of constant volume in reshaping, the emerging strip thickness from the incoming strip thickness at the moment of rolling and the infeed and discharge speed can be calculated and thus suitable correction values for the actuators can be determined. The speed and length sensor ASCOspeed is designed for this precise measurement.

Advantages:

• Non-contact and non delay measurement
• Safe LED light source (Light Class 1)
• Robust and not prone to errors due to plausibility test
• Hardware synchronisation function of several devices

Material parameter:

• Material speed max. 3000 m/min
• Compensation of oscillationoscillation
• Reference distance 300mm
