AB - Fig 1 The Churchill TWB roll-grinder fitted with the RTH linear measuring system test grinding a roll at the company's Coventry Works prior to delivery to the BSC's L1anwern Works Linear transducers simplify roll grinding by *8. S. Pearn ring, the induced voltage is always derived from at least two With delivery to the British Steel Corporation's Llanwern rings. As a result, the slightest movement of the sleeve along Works in Wales of the Churchill model TWB roll-grinding machine fitted with a Rank Taylor Hobson linear transducer the shaft varies the induced voltage. Furthermore, because measuring system (see Fig I), the problem of accurately align­ each ring is fed with a different voltage and the capacitance of the assembly is constant, any position of the sleeve along ing rolls for grinding has been solved. What used to be a critical operation has now turned into a simple job that is said guaran­ the shaft is indicated by a unique output voltage. The output from the sleeve is fed to an AC bridge circuit, tees a pair of precision-matched rolls, no matter how unevenly where it is balanced automatically by cascaded voltage trans­ worn they may have become.
