A modular repair kit for repairing damaged pallet rack frames and a method of installation thereof which incudes modular elements that can be customized by mechanical process such as cutting, drilling and connecting, for example, by bolts, that avoids major modifications, such as welding, at the installation site. The modular repair kit utilizes a standard replacement post assembly that can be cut to fit into nearly any size gap that is created when the damaged portion of the pallet rack frame is removed. The remaining elements of the repair kit can then be customized to accommodate any size of the standard replacement post assembly.

A device for detecting the flatness of a sheet material includes a conveyor, a gantry, a beam, an industrial camera unit, a speed measurement unit, a vibration measurement unit, a multi-line laser, a cable carrier, an industrial controller, and a control cabinet. The conveyor is disposed beneath the gantry and includes a plurality of pinch roll assemblies for feeding a sheet material. The beam is disposed on the gantry and includes a first side and a second side. The industrial camera unit is disposed on the first side of the beam and includes at least two industrial cameras. The speed measurement unit is disposed between the at least two industrial cameras. The vibration measurement unit is disposed on the second side of the beam and includes at least two distance measurement devices. The multi-line laser is disposed between the at least two distance measurement devices.

A horizontal roll stand includes upper and lower back-up rolls, removable work rolls, a balancing device for supporting the upper work roll, and a vertical adjustment device for the lower back-up roll. The work rolls are removed and a press device for straightening pressing of a flat metal product is inserted into the roll stand. The press device includes opposing upper and lower press frames that are displaceable relative to each other. The upper press frame and the lower press frame have one of a selectively moveable pressing die or opposing selectively moveable table with a trough for immersion of the pressing die to selectively press and flatten defects in the flat metal product. The upper press frame includes carrier elements which contact a balancing device of and for support within the roll stand. The lower press frame has support elements for being supported on stanchions of the roll stand.

The present disclosure provides for fin straightening tools for a heat radiator configured with fins forming elongated air passages. The fin straightening tool comprises an elongated rod member having a proximal end opposite a distal insertion end and a body comprising a cross-section adapted to geometrically align closely with a geometric cross-sectional shape of an air flow passage formed between fins of a radiator. The body forms two opposing planar surfaces configured as flat to slidingly engage opposing external flat surfaces of radiator fins to structurally mate against the external flat surfaces. The distal insertion end of the rod member is angled and beveled. The present disclosure further provides methods of using the fin straightening tools to straighten bent radiator fins, including to form a scaffolding support structure, to straighten a damaged area of a radiator.

A method for straightening a distortion of a component by way of a straightening device is provided. The straightening device includes a clamping element for clamping in the component, a straightening element for introducing a straightening force into the component, and an anvil element for supporting the component during the introduction of the straightening force. Furthermore, a straightening device for straightening a distortion of a component is provided. The straightening device includes a clamping element for clamping in the component, a straightening element for introducing a straightening force into the component, an anvil element for supporting the component during the introduction of the straightening force, and a control element for operating the straightening device.

The ratio of the difference between a surface distance L at each of the different positions in a width direction DW of a metal sheet and a minimum surface distance Lm to the minimum surface distance Lm is an elongation difference ratio. The elongation difference ratio in a center section in the width direction DW of the metal sheet is less than or equal to 310.sup.5. The elongation difference ratios in two edge sections in the width direction DW of the metal sheet are less than or equal to 1510.sup.5. The elongation difference ratio in at least one of the two edge sections in the width direction DW of the metal sheet is less than the elongation difference ratio in the center section in the width direction of the metal sheet.
