Abstract
The aim of the invention is to create an inspection system (1) for rolled products (2) of a milling station, which is to reliably prevent the texture of the substrate from being impressed and/or pressing through during processing of the rolled product (2), especially during grinding. Said aim is achieved by disposing a number of vertically adjustable rolled product clamps (6, 8) on a conveyor belt (4) for rolled products (2) in the inspection system (1).
Claims3
Inspection system (1) for rolled products (2) of a rolling mill, comprising:
- a belt conveyor (4) for rolled products (2);
- a number of vertically adjustable rolled product clamps (6, 8) arranged along the belt conveyor (4) for fixedly holding the rolled products (2), the clamps each having two jaws and being provided so as to be adjustable between a position in which the clamps (6, 8) along with the jaws are completely above an upper surface of the belt conveyor and a position in which the clamps along with the jaws are completely below the upper surface of the belt conveyor.
