The use of encoders in the steel industry
Encoders are used in various applications in the steel industry, such as in the control of rolling mills, which are used to reduce the thickness of steel sheets. In rolling mills, encoders are used to measure the speed and position of the rollers to ensure accurate rolling and to prevent damage to the steel sheets. Encoders are also used in the control of the cutting machines, which are used to cut the steel sheets into the desired size and shape. In these machines, encoders are used to measure the position and speed of the cutting blades to ensure accurate cutting and to prevent the wastage of material.
The use of tachos in the steel industry
Tachos are used to measure the rotational speed of various machines in the steel industry, such as the motors and generators used in steel mills. Tachos are used to ensure that the machines operate at the desired speed and to detect any deviations from the set speed, which can be an indication of problems with the machines.
In addition to their use in the control of machines, encoders, and tacho generators are also used in the monitoring of various parameters in the steel production process, such as the temperature and pressure of the molten steel in the furnaces. Encoders and tachos are used to measure the speed and position of the devices used to measure these parameters, ensuring accurate measurements and control of the steel production process.
