Abstract

See full text

A roll sensing system for measuring the pressure distribution and nip width in a nip roll press. The sensing system comprises a strip having sensors thereon, the strip being placed in a nip press, for sensing the pressure at several locations therealong. At one end of the strip lies electronics associated with the sensors. The electronics communicate with an optional multiplexer and a bidirectional transmitter for signal transmission to an external signal conditioner and an external computer. The computer determines pressure values and nip width values at various locations along the strip, and communicates with a display which provides a visual, graphical and/or numerical data to the operator. Optionally, a control system can be in communication with the transmitter or the computer to initiate crown corrections in response to pressure or nip width readings.
