Why torque measurement on rolling mill spindles?

Accurate, real time data for mill overload monitoring
Data for an optimum rolling schedule for better mill utilisation
Continuous quality monitoring
Spindle condition monitoring for fatigue life analysis

IML`s SMT assembly is a more robust version of its MT clamp-on system.
Housings are typically 5mm steel to resist crane hooks!

Torque measurement on two shafts in a steel strip rolling mill is shown on the top picture. The lower one shows special IML-manufactured annular load cells for steel mill set-up prior to metal processing.
