STRIP THICKNESS CONTACT GAUGES VBM Metal strip Two transducers contact the upper and lower side of the strip, the sum of the individual measurements is the absolute strip thickness. In complex measuring heads, in some cases with cardanic suspension, integrated heaters, pivot bearings and many other functions. This simple measurement principle is transformed into a high-precision measuring machine that reliably measures the strip thickness in the mill even at high strip speeds. Direct, absolute measurement irrespective of the alloy Precision up to one micrometer per millimeter of strip thickness Correct results even with oiled strip
