One of the crucial parameters in achieving correct strip thickness during cold rolling is the strip tension. In order to reach the highest possible accuracy, a strip tensiometer is the best and most reliable alternative. Accurate strip tension measurement is a prerequisite for keeping the strip tension constant within the desired range, during both acceleration and deceleration.
The Millmate Strip Tensiometer System consists of a Millmate Controller 400, a junction box and two load cells matched to the desired measuring range.
The load cells are available for measurement in two different directions, one for vertical measurement and the other for horizontal measurement, depending on application.
