Switzerland, July 21 -- ABB has launched an advanced low-force system for cold rolling mill applications. Aimed at processes producing ultra-thin metals including aluminum, copper and steel foils, the new Stressometer Low-Force Flatness System combines high accuracy with a robust design and a low total cost of ownership.Fitted into a compact 200 mm diameter roll, the low-force system maintains the physical footprint of ABB's standard Stressometer(R) sensor while integrating specialized material properties to detect extremely small force variations to within a few grams with unmatched resolution. This enables much tighter flatness, thickness and tension control in finishing applications handling foil gauges ranging from 50 down to five micro...
