Device for guiding steel belt along axis of press

摘要

A measuring and control device for guiding a steel belt along a longitudinal axis of a continuously operating press includes a driving drum and a reversing drum for guiding the steel belt. Two measuring columns are respectively anchored in a foundation and spaced longitudinally from either longitudinal side of one end face of the continuously operating press. Four path sensors are disposed on the measuring columns, such that each of the path sensors measure a spacing between the sensor and a point on the continuously operating press. Pressure cylinder-piston arrangements are disposed on the driving drum and the reversing drum to correct the course of the steel belt. Variables for altering the course of said steel belt include the spacings measured by the path sensors.
