Abstract :
With the progressively higher rolling speeds employed by manufacturers of metal strip and the requirements of closer gauge tolerance by the metal strip users, it has become increasingly important to have available a high-speed thickness-measuring device. Such a device can be a useful tool in analyzing high-speed mill variations as well as providing a low-noise high-accuracy signal for automatic control of thickness.
