AI Technical Summary
Non-contact conveying apparatuses face challenges in stabilizing the conveyance of strip materials due to meandering and flapping, especially when meandering amounts are small, which can lead to surface defects like scratches and scraping.
A method and device that utilize a floater group to tilt the strip material by changing its height position and applying a cant roll to generate a horizontal correction force, even for small meandering amounts, using a cant roll positioned strategically between floaters and conveyance rolls to stabilize the strip material without surface damage.
The method effectively corrects meandering and stabilizes strip material conveyance, minimizing surface defects and ensuring accurate centering, even with minimal meandering, by using a cant roll to apply controlled horizontal forces.
