Abstract: An electromagnetic non-contact online meter counting and speed measurement method and device for a steel wire are provided. An axial excitation device and an internally pass-through magnetic-sensitive detector sensor are disposed sequentially at intervals in an advancing direction of a steel wire. When the axial excitation device is excited by a narrow pulse voltage, the internally pass-through magnetic-sensitive detection sensor detects remanence around the steel wire in real time. When a magnetic null point is detected, a control system sends a narrow pulse excitation trigger instruction to enable a next excitation and detection process, and increases a meter counting value by a value corresponding to one meter counting pitch. The excitation is performed cyclically until it is ended. It calibrates an error caused by diameter and material changes and vibration of a detected steel wire.

Abstract: An object of the present disclosure is to implement a coloring pattern with a constant illuminance value on an electrode substrate to thereby increase display reliability and lifetime while reducing delamination of the hole transport layer (HTL) in the post-process. That is, when the roughness of the pattern after post-baking treatment is low, it may cause delamination of the hole transport layer (HTL) and a decrease in lifetime due to defective pixels, and thus a certain roughness can be obtained by minimizing the surface flow by leaving the substrate at a high temperature during post-baking treatment according to the present disclosure.
