Fully instrumented cold sheet rolling mill

Our research group requires a precision, instrumented, laboratory sheet-mill, with the ability to produce test pieces with a high quality surface and thickness consistency in 0.7-to 1cm thick sheet, at least 30 cm wide, and with run out lengths of 2 meters. The focus of our research is to develop the next generation of high value added wrought metal products, therefore the mill must to be capable of rolling a wide range of metal alloys, including Al, Ti, Ni, and steels.
