Product catalog summary
Introduction
This press release from Automated Precision Deutschland GmbH discusses the use of Laser Tracker technology to address issues in rolling mills and large equipment installations. The document highlights the importance of precision in maintaining equipment functionality and product quality.

Roller Adjustment and Centreline Alignment
The document identifies a problem with armour plate deviation due to poor parallelization of rollers in a rolling mill. The Laser Tracker is recommended for adjusting roller alignments, particularly in the Continuous Annealing Unit and Coating Device Unit. Routine inspections and adjustments are necessary to maintain product quality, with the Laser Tracker enabling precise measurement of abrasion and deviation control within 0.3mm.

Precision Control in Equipment Installation
For large-scale equipment installations, maintaining positional precision within 0.10mm is crucial. The Laser Tracker aids in achieving this precision, facilitating online assembly adjustments, reducing construction time, and improving installation accuracy. This technology is also beneficial for post-maintenance equipment restoration.

Troubleshooting and Vibration Analysis
Scratches on armour plates during cold-rolled product inspections are attributed to roller bouncing. The Laser Tracker can measure vibration and bouncing, helping to identify the cause of surface damage. This method is patent-pending and can also measure shaft vibration and blade trace detection.
