PURPOSE:To improve measuring accuracy, by obtaining the length of ralative movement based on the value of addition of the product of the delay time of an index detecting means and the relative speed of movement and the interval between the index detecting means and index attaching means and also based on the detected times of the index. CONSTITUTION:The length of a steel plate 1, which has passed an electromagnet 3, when an index is attached by the electromagnet 3 from the detection of the arrival of the steel plate 1 by a detector 7, is the sum of the product (betaV0) of a moving speed Vo and the sum beta of the delay time of detection of the detector 7 and the delay time to the actual magnetization after the electromagnet 3 is energized and a length Lf of the steel plate. When the Nth index is detected and the (N+1)th index is attached, the length of the steel plate 1, which has passed the electromagnet 3, is expressed by the expression in the Figure, where L0 is the distance between the electromagnet 3 and a magnetic sensor 4, alpha is a delay time from the time the index reaches the magnetic sensor 4 to the time the next index is attached, and vi is the moving speed.
