Why the ACA RoQ Inline

Every roll measured

Fully automated system that measures all rolls on the conveyor — no operator, no real-time supervision.

Early defect detection

Detects deviations such as soft edges or hardness variations before they cause runnability issues or claims.

Consistently high quality

Reliable real-time measurement enables fine-tuning of the winding process for a uniform roll structure.

Ready for smart manufacturing

Automated data handling and communication with the mill system — compatible with digital production systems.

[ 02 ]Workflow

Fully automated inline

01

Roll arrives

The wound roll reaches the measuring station on the conveyor.

02

RollBeam positions

The ACA RollBeam manipulator automatically moves the A20 measuring head to the roll.

03

Measure profile

The A20 measuring head captures the hardness profile — always the same procedure, without operator-related variation.

04

Data & handoff

Automated data handoff to the mill system; the roll continues without intervention.

System: The ACA RoQ Inline consists of the ACA RoQ A20 measuring head and the ACA RollBeam manipulator (type RB800-685) — designed for unsupervised continuous operation.
