Abstract

A computer design tool for determining a predictive indication of slit width variation to adjust an arbor setup in rotary slitting of metal in accordance with the indication of slit width variation. A method of using such a design tool is also provided. The design tool performs an analysis on historical slitting runs to provide the predictive indication of slit width variation.
