  • High speed production of multiple gauge strip
    Patent number: 4523364
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for high speed production of a multiple gauge metal strip product having a configuration with a transverse variable thickness are described. A milling machine cuts away at least approximately 75% of the total volume of metal to be removed from the surface of the initial strip of metal. This forms a pattern corresponding to the multiple gauge surface desired in the strip product. Then, the milled strip is passed into a shaving device which is located in axial alignment with the milling device. The shaving apparatus shaves off a maximum of about 25% of the total volume of metal to be removed from the surface of the milled strip in a single shaving pass to substantially form the desired configuration of the strip product.
