The CALIPRI C42 RollShop Bundle is designed for the fast and highly accurate measurement of roll dimensional properties in the steel mill. The bundle features two measurement methods:
- The method Roll Caliber enables the measurement of depth and width of multiple grooves in a roll caliber. Up to ten grooves can be measured with one single hand-guided measurement scan.
Additionally, the feature ProfileCompare can be used to examine the wear of the grooves using a graphical overlay of the groove curve before and after extensive usage. Regular measurement of the roll calibers is crucial in order to assure a constant long product quality and optimize the roll lifetime. - The method Roll Gap is used for the measurement of the minimum gap between two flat roll sections. This parameter is important in order to produce long rolled products or metal sheets with specified thickness.
The measurement with the CALIPRI C42 handheld sensor is carried out easy and fast. Due to the patented CALIPRI principle the results are extremely reliable: roll and tilt corrections are done by the device automatically in order to generate highly precise, reproduceable and user-independent results.
Measurement plans can be created by drag & drop in the software CALIPRI Manager. The user defines the position of the measurement points, the measurement method and the tolerance ranges of the results. Afterwards, the profile is recorded by a swiveling movement of the CALIPRI sensor. The measurement software CALIPRI Portable Operator then automatically calculates the dimensional results which are displayed both on the tablet PC and on the sensor itself with color coded tolerance classes. Additionally, the captured profile can be compared with reference data by using the featureProfileCompare. The measurement results can be transferred easily via Ethernet, Bluetooth, USB or wireless – allowing print as well as export of the results and profile curves in a variety of common file formats.
