Description
Overview: Lateral force input is ideal for measuring strip tension. The indenter measures only strip tension, excluding roll weight. Measurements achieve the highest accuracy. The solid stainless steel design offers excellent sensitivity, accuracy, and robustness, as well as a high modulus of elasticity.
– PFTL 201C/D, equipped with a Cannon connector for cable connection, is ideal for handling lines.
– PFTL 201CE/DE, suitable for rolling mill environments, comes with a sheathed, fixed connection cable.
