Tensionmeters

Strip Tension Measurement, Rolling Mill Force Measurement, Process Regulation Aim: a continuous measurement of strip tension during production and finishing processes; processing of the measuring signal and transmission to the production process. Principle : strip tension is measured indirectly via the force applied on the roller bearings. Solution : the strip tension measuring device, or tensionmeter, is composed of load cells to be installed by pairs at each end of a roller; the electronic unit processes the measuring signal. Tensionmeters are available for vertical roll force measuring, horizontal roll force measuring or both vertical and horizontal roll force measuring. Range of applications: Continuous casting Hot and cold mills Descaling lines Galvanizing lines Continuous annealing lines Painting lines Inspection lines Paper production lines Synthetic film and tape production lines
