ABSTRACT:
A monitoring system for determining a cross-sectional shape or profile of a steel strip. The monitoring system includes a scan unit that traverses back and forth across the width of the strip as the strip moves through a plating line. The scan unit includes a radiation source for directing a radiation beam toward a surface of the strip and a photodetector for monitoring radiation reflected from the surface of the strip. Using optical triangulation, the distance to the surface of the strip is obtained and collected by a computer. The computer co-ordinates the scan data with the position of the scan unit relative to the strip and displays data corresponding to the cross-sectional shape of the strip.
