Smart Sensing for Non-Linear Motion in Side Arm Chargers
Smart Radar Sensor for width measurement Hot Rolling Mills
Challenges
Misalignment in a lever arm mechanism caused LVDT signal errors. Unprotected LVDTs also corroded and jammed in harsh condition.
Solution
The high accuracy distance sensor with radar system-
- Contactless, inline measurement of slabs, strips, and plates (up to 1600 °C).
- Accuracy up to ±300 µm even in harsh environments
- Independent of alloy or metal type.
- Eliminates radiation hazards and reduces cost.
- Sensor deflected via oil-dampened pendulum, no extra alignment needed
- IP66 protection; vibration-resistant up to 4g (0–100 Hz)
- Easy programming via membrane keypad
