System will measure the width of the slab discharged from the furnace , check the slab with the standard vale, reject the slab if there is any deviation etc.
- Measure the width of the slab discharged from the furnace
- Provide a reference value to setup the roughing mill.
- A check if a slab of incorrect width not suitable for the mill is discharged from the furnace
- A check at the start of the width spread / squeeze process, both for statistical and control purpose
- Reject the slab at this location itself due to bad width and conserve the energy required to roll out a slab of wrong width dimensions.
