Note:
To be able to calculate the roller shaft bending value and its position around the kiln, the software
needs a reference signal, when the reference point is passing the roller, which is measured.
Typically the manhole in the kiln shell is used as reference point.
Each time when this reference point is passing the direction of the measured roller, push the
button [F9] to indicate the kiln rotation. A yellow line in the graph will show the position of the
reference point.
Fig. 7.4.3
The green curve shows the measured values
The blue curve is sinusoidal and shows the variation of roller shaft bending coming from a
crank in the kiln shell
The curve indicates the roundness of the support roller and is the difference
red
between the measured curve (green) and the shaft bending curve (blue).
After about 3 kiln revolutions, sufficient data are collected and the measurement can be stopped.
To stop the measurements push the Stop button or [F6].
