<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system and a method for molding a starting sheet for securing a certain range of perpendicularity regardless of the thickness distribution of the starting sheet. <P>SOLUTION: The main part of the system for molding the stating sheet consists of: a molding machine which forms the starting sheet into a desired shape; a thickness measuring device which is provided with a plurality of pairs of non contact position sensors which use an infrared ray, laser light, an ultrasonic wave, an X-ray, a magnetic field, and the like for measuring the thickness of the starting sheet and in which each of the paired sensors is disposed on both sides of the starting sheet so as to face each other before the starting sheet is supplied to the molding machine; and a sequencer which arithmetically processes values acquired by the thickness measuring device to adjust the amount of molding produced with the molding machine and gives the output to the molding machine. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO</p> |
