Abstract
A measuring arrangement at a roller way formed by rotatably mounted rollers includes a supporting body movable along the roller way and thus setting the rollers in rotation. At the supporting body, sensors are arranged which coact with the surface areas of the rollers and measure the distance between the surface areas of the rollers and a neutral line provided within the supporting body. In order to be able to find out distorted or eccentrically mounted rollers by continuously moving through the measuring arrangement, the supporting body, on the side facing the roller way, has at least three sensors arranged at a distance from one another in the direction parallel to the moving direction of the supporting body. The sensors measure the surface area of a roller in subsequent angular positions.
