In the high-stakes world of metal processing, precision and durability are non-negotiable. Rolling mills operate under intense mechanical stress, extreme temperatures, and constant vibration—conditions that demand robust, high-resolution feedback systems to maintain quality and efficiency.

At Innovative Measurement Technology Ltd., we’re proud to offer the Magnescale Feedback Scale System, a purpose-built solution engineered to thrive in the harshest industrial environments.

Built for the Rolling Mill

The Magnescale system combines the HA-705LK reader head, MSS-976R scale rod, and MD50 interpolator to deliver:

  • 🎯 ±3µm accuracy and up to 0.5µm resolution
  • 🛡️ IP67 waterproofing, shock resistance up to 110G, and vibration tolerance up to 50G
  • 🔄 Real-time position feedback for precise control of rolling operations
  • ⚙️ 2- or 4-axis control with flexible integration into custom automation racks
  • 🌍 Global voltage compatibility and trusted performance in steel, aluminium, and non-ferrous mills

Why It Matters

Rolling mills rely on accurate position feedback to control roll gaps, monitor material thickness, and ensure consistent product quality. The Magnescale system provides:

  • Real-time feedback to reduce waste and improve throughput
  • Extreme durability to withstand coolant, debris, and mechanical shock
  • Flexible integration with modern control systems and legacy infrastructure

Whether you’re upgrading an existing line or building a new facility, this system offers a future-proof solution for high-precision metal processing.
