Pengujian Keselarasan Geometris di Dunia

Industri Menggunakan Teknologi Pengukuran
Modern
Meningkatnya kecepatan produksi suatu pabrik harus diiringi dengan kualitas
penyelarasan geometris yang presisi pada instalasi mesin.
Pada instalasi mesin, antara suatu gulungan (Roll ) dengan gulugan yang lain harus
memiliki hubungan “Paralel” dan “Tegak Lurus” terhadap suatu titik referensi mesin.
Metode pengukuran modern yang kami tawarkan dijelaskan seperti berikut ini.

Bagaimana mengukur
Mengapa perlu mengetahui keselarasan Roll dalam jumlah
hubungan paralel antar Roll? yang banyak? Apakah PARALIGN® itu?

Secara umum, penggunaan Rolls pada
pabrik berfungsi sebagai pembawa
material, cotohnya kain ataupun kertas.
Roll yang tidak paralel menyebabkan
suatu “Gaya Transversal” dan berpotensi
menarik material secara asimetris. Hal ini
tentu sangat berdampak pada kualitas
produksi anda seperti kerutan, sobekan
da mengurangi masa pakai wire.
15 Tahun yang lalu, sebelum PARALIGN
dipergunakan secara komersial, Theodolyte
masih diandalkan sebagai pengukur paralel
antar Roll. Selain itu, penggunaan Sistem
Optik sangat terbatas penggunaannya di
lingkungan industri karena membutuhkan
pemantauan visual secara terus-menerus
pada objek yang diukur.
PARALIGN® mampu memberikan anda
pengukuran yang cepat dan sangat presisi
hingga 80 Roll per hari.
PARALIGN® adalah alat ukur yang mengadopsi
teknologi pesawat antariksa. Alat ini memiliki 3
Ring Laser Gyroscopes dengan tingkat presisi
Graphometers yang sangat tinggi. Tampilan
ortogonal pada gyroscope memperlihatkan
sistem koordinat 3 dimensi yang
menggambarkan 3 Derajat kebebasan (Roll,
Pitch, Yaw) pada Roll (Lihat gambar 2).

How does the method work?

PARALIGN® was developed for measuring

roll parallelism. For measured value
acqui-sition, the device – as shown in fgure
3 – is simply placed on the roll shell and
moved along its surface over a pitch circle
around the axis of rotation. Using this
movement, a measured value bundle is
acquired that is used by an algorithm to
calculate the axis of rotation of the roll in
the three-di-mensional space.

Conducting such measurements on

sever-al rolls allows the presentation and
com-parison of the axes of rotation of the
rolls in a comprehensible report.

moved along a pitch circle on the surface of the roll
shell for measured value acquisition.

A real-life example
The wire rolls of a post-drying group were
replaced. The PARALIGN® service offered
by PRÜFTECHNIK was used for verifying
roll parallelism. The newly installed rolls
were measured, aligned, and their
align-ment state documented within a
few hours. Figure 4 presents the
measurement results before and after
alignment.

Why can we not use a
theodolite?
As in this case – as so often – this is not
possible. Just as modern tracking
inter-ferometers and electronic
tachymeters, theodolites are optical
measuring systems that require a visual
connection to the rolls.

The observer is positioned on the
opera-tor's side of the machine,
represented by green dots. The red dots
represent the machine side of the roll;
the blue dot is the selected reference roll
that is perpendicular to the drawing
plane.
This results in enormous restrictions. The The time for roll corrections during this
time effort should not be underestimat-ed service appointment was also used to
either: A trained optical engineer can document the alignment state of further
measure 6 to 8 rolls a day using a drying groups. The qualitative result is
the-odolite. PARALIGN®, on the other hand, pre-sented in the following fgure.
can completely document up to 3 drying
groups within a day (see fgure 5).

How to select a
reference roll?

PARALIGN® can measure rolls relatively
to one another and compare the spatial
vectors of the axes of rotation. However,
which roll should be used as reference?
The reference axis should be perpendicu-
lar to the machine axis. For this purpose, a
laser-based method was developed for de-
termining the horizontal position of a roll
relative to the reference axis of the ma-
chine. The disk laser is calibrated parallel to
the available foor markings. The head-beam
that is precisely vertical to the rotat-ing laser
records the measurement points on the
operator's and the machine side
of the roll. Therefore, the horizontal
posi-tion of a roll relative to the reference
axis of the machine is clearly determined
and can be implemented in the
PARALIGN® report.
