Non-contact linear encoder for steelmaking
Achieves high-precision thickness measurement over long distances. Maintenance-free magnetic type.
In the steel industry, accurate thickness measurement is essential for quality control of manufactured steel products. Stable measurement accuracy is required even under harsh conditions such as high temperatures, vibrations, and scale adhesion. Traditional laser length measurement and contact encoders have limitations for use in these environments. Our non-contact linear encoder employs a magnetic system, achieving stable thickness measurement even in harsh conditions. 【Application Scenarios】 * Thickness measurement of steel plates in hot rolling lines * Thickness measurement of steel slabs in continuous casting lines * Pipe thickness measurement in pipe manufacturing lines 【Benefits of Implementation】 * Non-contact measurement allows for stable readings even in high-temperature environments * Magnetic design reduces maintenance frequency * Supports long-distance measurements, accommodating diverse measurement needs
