When slitting metal, the problem of cross camber, i.e. strip curvature at right angles to the running direction, often occurs. imess S40 enables reliable testing of the cross camber of material strips in just a few seconds. The measurement is operator-independent and digitizes quality control. Two different versions are available for this purpose.
For 3-point measurement, the sample is placed on the imess S40 system and centered using the handwheel. The high-precision, non-contact laser sensor determines the cross camber exactly in the middle and shows the measurement on the system display.
A complete scan of the material sample is performed. For this purpose, a central slot is cut into a stable granite measuring table, through which the laser sensor on a positioning carriage optically scans the height of the sheet, i.e. without contact. The result is used to determine the maximum cross camber. The scanning concept can be extended to check other features.
