Abstract
In a processing facility, the plate usually travels at a velocity of more than 10m/s. When a long steel plate travels at high speed, rollers are usually used as supporters. However, when rollers are used, deterioration caused by cracks in the process of coating or gilding is possible. We have proposed noncontact guide by using electromagnetic attractive force for a traveling steel belt. In this study, permanent magnets were installed in the place where the electromagnet was not set up in order to suppress the elastic vibration. To verify the usefulness of the proposed system, a control experiment was performed.
