Application

The RollMaster Roll Force Measurement Load Cells are strain gage load cells suitable for rolling mills and other types of machinery to measure force or load. They are high temperature load cells with operating temperature up to 150 deg. C and are mechanically interchangeable with KELK / ABB . They can also be customized as per customer requirement for capacities up to 4000 Tons. They have sensitivity 1.0 to 1.8 mV/V and are machined and manufactured from a single high strength stainless steel 17-4 PH forging. Each load cell is fitted with Teflon cable and is armoured for protection. Strain gages as measuring elements, permit the use of DC excitation to provide exceptionally fast changes in force or load.

They consist of the following types :

1. RollMaster Gasket Load Cellss
2. RollMaster Slab Load Cells
3. RollMaster Disc Load Cells
4. RollMaster T-Block Load Cells

Features

ROLLMASTER GASKET LOAD CELLS

• Highly accurate under uneven loading conditions. The location is between the nut and the housing.
• Conditions favorable at the top of the mill.
• For roughing mills or plate mills with high impact loading.
• Easily and economically retrofitted into existing mills.

ROLLMASTER SLAB LOAD CELLS

• Length matching that of rocker block ensures load distribution.
• Can economically update existing rectangular- shaped installations.

ROLLMASTER DISC LOAD CELLS

• Insensitive to uneven loading.
• Dry locations require less maintenance.
• Ambient conditions are favorable at the top of the mill.
• Can economically update existing disk-shaped cell installations.

ROLLMASTER T-BLOCK LOAD CELLS

• Narrow load cell is specially designed to fit beneath rocker block at bottom of mill.
• Provides integration of line load from rocker block with no need for line distribution plates.
• Protected against mill fluids and scales found in this location.
• Will tolerate bending of mill housing without error.
