Those measuring applications are having high requirements for the measuring hardware. For example a common interface for fast data exchange, high resolution, independent functionality and easy customizability to suit the measuring application. For that reason, a well-known application for steel-mill process monitoring can be used as a development platform. This hardware platform is based on a vector network analyzer and is meeting the requirements mainly. However, a couple of modifications has to be made, like replacing the ADC for a higher sample rate, Ethernet for easy and fast data exchange and the microcontroller for more calculation power.

The product dimensions are an important part of the quality control; these must maintain the specified tolerances. Additional to the cross-sectional-area, the measured data contains much more information about the manufacturing process, e.g. eccentricity, condition of the rolls and defects of the rod. For analyzing the measured data and to gather more information about the manufacturing process it is necessary to increase the speed of the data acquisition by performing some modifications of the VNA, e.g. faster analog to digital converter and microcontroller, improved firmware and optimized values of the passive electrical components for faster time constants and transient responses.

Despite of the progressive automation and experience, some important process parameters can still not be determined with sufficient accuracy. As part of the research project PIREF, the velocity of the hot rolled rod shall be measured by using im-pedance analysis to estimate the volumetric flow rate of the mate-rial. For a high accuracy measurement of the impedance, a pow-erful VNA is used. To minimize errors in the measurement, caused by e.g. temperature drift, a correction of the measurement fre-quency is needed. This must be achieved without recalibration of the VNA to avoid faulty behavior of the online control. To solve this problem, an approach based on a polynomial regression is presented in this work.

In fact many of these crucial parameters are not be sufficiently determined yet. By improving automation and process control costs and scrap of production can be decreased. As part of the research project PIREF, one of these parameters – the roll gap – is under investigation beside other topics. Before starting rolling, the roll gap is typically set to a fixed value according to the planed dimensions of the product, but the forces during the rolling of the rod cause an enlargement of the roll gap. In which way the rolls change their position and form shall be examined in our research project. Therefore a first experimental setup has been built up to determine the change in position of the rolls under applied force. This is realized by a pot core coil as sensor using impedance analysis. The first results are presented in this work as a proof-of-principle.

In addition, the measurement of process variables such as roll gap, cross-sectional area, velocity, and volume flow of the material during production enables the implementation of model-based control concepts to improve product quality. The non-contact speed measurement of hot wire and bar is still a big challenge due to the rough environmental conditions and is solved mainly with optical measuring methods in production. The alternative measurement principle with eddy current sensors presented in this paper enables velocity measurement at locations in a rolling mill where optical measurement methods are not suitable.

Therefore, there is a big potential to increase product quality and to decrease costs and scrap by improving process control establishing new sensor systems. One of these crucial parameters is the roll gap,which is investigated as part of the research project PIREF. In this paper an experimental setup for examining the roll gap during a rolling process is presented and based on these results different sensor arrangements are discussed.

For this purpose, a sensor already implemented in a rolling mill for measuring the cross-sectional area of the rolling stock is used to obtain information about the velocity of the hot rods. Moreover, the effect of forward slip is briefly discussed.
