\u2013 the material appears optically flat, although it forms waves in a de-energised state.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our new system overcomes this limitation,\u201d explains Richard Rak, CEO of IMS Messsysteme GmbH. &#8220;We generate a defined bending of the strip by means of an electromagnetic deflection vertical to the direction of the strip flow. This is measured with high precision using triangulation with our CCS system.&#8221; The deflection is proportional to the local strip tension: If a fibre is longer than the adjacent one, it is deflected further with the same force \u2013 off-flatness can thus be clearly identified.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-58f5302 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"58f5302\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fb329cf elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"fb329cf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Continuous flatness monitoring<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9ac0f07 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9ac0f07\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Besides the aforementioned problem that a purely optical flatness measuring produces incorrect results with regard to the actual fibre lengths when the strip is under tension, there is a further disadvantage: In manual quality control, samples are usually cut off at the end of the strip and measured. This method provides localised, often unrepresentative results, especially for welded single strips with different flatness properties.\u00a0 The novel magnetic strip flatness measuring system now allows for significantly improved information on the produced material. Due to the continuous measuring of the stripe during the ongoing process, the flatness of the entire material can be evaluated.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b27cce0 dce_masking-none elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"b27cce0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ims-gmbh.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/thumbs\/Illustration-functional-principle-magnetic-strip-flatness-measuring-system-1-r7rsbqjbtb828cjpizw1hs05duv6njzktwxmjk45na.jpg\" title=\"Illustration-functional-principle-magnetic-strip-flatness-measuring-system.jpg\" alt=\"Illustration-functional-principle-magnetic-strip-flatness-measuring-system.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-087ddbd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"087ddbd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Figure 2: Functional principle of a magnetic strip flatness measuring system<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b7eccbc elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"b7eccbc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1f53943 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1f53943\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Quality benefits and customer satisfaction<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-38fd30b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"38fd30b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>With a vertical resolution of up to 5\u00a0\u00b5m, the camera cluster system offers a highly accurate basis for measuring ultra-thin and thin metal sheet, which allows a high-precision evaluation of the flatness of the rings, when combined with the electromagnetic deflection unit.
