Multichannel Thickness Profile Measuring System

Multichannel Thickness Profile Measuring System

The XR SSMC multichannel thickness profile measuring system measures both strip thickness and the strip thickness cross profile continuously and in real time.

To this end, the C-frame of the multichannel thickness profile measurement is equipped with a series of segments, each consisting of a radiation source in the upper beam and a width-dependent number of detectors in the lower part of the frame, each forming a measuring channel. In this system the radiation passes through the material from top to bottom. The ionisation chambers (detectors) convert the radiation which has passed through the material into electrical signals, which are then used to calculate the exact thickness of the material.

The centre gauge supplies the data for control (AGC) of the mill stand. The other detectors supply the profile data for calculation of the important wedge and crown values.

continuous thickness measurement in the centre of the roller table

continuous measurement of strip thickness cross profile

measurement of width and centreline deviation

calculation of wedge and crown values

fastest and continuous cross profile measurement compared to other measuring systems with cross profile function

continuous guarantee of centreline thickness detection

stereoscopic design and thus detection of the cross contour influence

…These are particularly impressive due to their long service life and constant performance.

Our measuring systems allow our customers to always be one step ahead of the competition.

Our motto of “Precision out of passion and quality out of conviction” is the decisive criterion for the development of our high-precision measuring systems, many of which have been and still are world firsts.

To be allowed to actively support this pioneering spirit for more than 30 years, as well as our passion for precision, is a challenge anew for me every day, which continues to motivate and inspire me even after all these years.

For me, it’s not enough to just talk about the matter. You have to speak to the people and therefore it is my personal goal to guide you through the buying process with the quality of my advice and my support, to develop with you exactly the measuring system that is right for your specific measurement tasks and that has been specially tailored to your individual application.”
