The facility inspection specialist TTS has started services for the paper, foil, film, printing and steel industries, introducing ring laser gyroscopes to perform roll parallelism measurements in Japan.
Three high precision ring laser gyroscopes measure the parallelism of rolls compared to a single reference, regardless of distances, installation layout and obstruction. Accuracy is as high as ±0.05 mm per 1 m, ensuring high product quality, while measurements require only 1 to 5 minutes per roll.
Comprehensive graphic measurement results and a correction list are compiled immediately and facilitated on-site adjustment work shortens downtime. Thanks to measurement accuracy and speed, the new service contributes to improvement of quality and productivity.
