Precision matters: Overcoming the challenges of slit strip width measurement in metal manufacturing and processing

In the case of metal service centres and manufacturers, strips are also often slit longitudinally into a customer-specific number of slit strips in order to provide the end customer with an optimum and immediate product for use in their production processes. Measuring the width of slit strips is important for maintaining quality control, managing inventory efficiently, controlling costs, and ensuring safety in the processing of flat metals at producers, metal service centres, and processors.

The accuracy requirements for measuring slit strip width depend on the specifications provided by the customer. Typically, the width tolerance ranges from +/- 0.1 mm to +/- 0.5 mm, depending on the thickness and width of the material. The EMG iCAM® intelligent width measurement system is the perfect answer to these requirements.
