Speed Inspection in Rolling Mills

Non-contact speed measurement in a rolling stand

In rolling mills it is crucial that the material and roll speeds are determined correctly. The in-plant speed measurement can be checked easily, quickly and safely using a non-contact laser velocimeter.

Typical Application Data:

  • Material and cylinder speeds: typically up to 2,000 m / min
  • Measurement accuracy with tactile measuring equipment or via drive: typically 1%
  • Measurement accuracy with non-contact length measurement μSPEED: typically 0.03%
  • Amortization: 1 – 2 months, PC for displaying measured values and storage, tripod mounting

Measurement / Material Examples:

  • Material speed on rolled sheet, tinplate, stainless steel, sheet steel, …
  • Cylinder speed in rolling stands, rolling machines, straightening machines
  • Troubleshooting to find wrong roll diameters

Machines equipped with non-contact speed measurement:

  • Rolling mills, rolling machines, winding machines
  • Paper Machines, Tissue Machines, Crepe Formers, Yankee Cylinders
  • Nonwoven machines, felting machines
  • Extruders, film casting machines, calenders, laminating machines, fabric inspection machines
