In today’s steel and precision alloy production, where even the smallest details can negatively affect product quality, precise measurement becomes a necessity. Some objects are so small that ordinary measuring instruments cannot measure them. In such cases devices capable of measuring in very small ranges are required. That is where the micrometer helps.
A micrometer is an instrument designed to measure the thickness, depth, or dimensions of very small objects in the micro-size range. Invented by William Gascoigne in 1638, it is a C-shaped frame with a handle. Modern micrometers on the market can measure thickness to one thousandth of a centimeter and may be equipped with digital indicators for ease of use.
In producing strip from steels and alloys, the micrometer plays a key role. Cold-rolled strip, widely used in construction, automotive, electronics, and other industries, requires precise dimensions and thickness for successful use of products at various stages of manufacturing critical parts and assemblies.
Using a micrometer makes it possible to control and ensure the required strip parameters, raising the quality and reliability of finished products. Without a micrometer the production process can lose accuracy and quality, leading to undesirable consequences when the products are used later.
At our enterprise every measuring instrument undergoes regular verification, which allows precise control of the thickness of the strip produced (especially important when manufacturing particularly thin materials).
PZPS produces micron-size strip from the following precision alloy grades:
Thanks to flexible, adaptable process technology, production of other steel and alloy grades in particularly thin sizes is possible by agreement with the customer. To order strip of the required sizes from the grades you need, call the listed phone number or leave a request on the website. Our staff will contact you and help place the order.
