Abstract
A rolling mill for rolling strip in which one of its rolls serves both as a mill roll and as a gauge and/or profile measuring roll. The one roll has an outer sleeve for deflection under the rolling force and an internal stationary member for carrying a number of axially supported sensors for measuring the deflection of the sleeve and the rolling force to which the sleeve is subject, and control means for receiving signals from the sensors to produce a signal representative of the gauge and/or profile of the strip as it is being rolled in the roll bite of the mill.
