  • Publication number: 20240027399
    Abstract: The present invention provides a correction steel sheet for quickly and accurately correcting the sensitivity of a sensor during hardness measurement in which a sudden signal change does not occur. In one embodiment, the correction steel sheet is a steel sheet having a long side and a short side and is used for correcting a sensor and includes a first part having a first hardness and a second part having a second hardness greater than the first hardness. The first part and the second part are arranged at different positions in a short side direction, and have phases changed from austenite grains of the same composition.
