In steel mills the hot metal is rolled out into sheet steel by powerful rolls. The steel thickness is controlled by measuring the absorption of x-rays from an x-ray generator, via a scintillator / photomultiplier tube assembly on the other side of the sheet. The measuring system adjusts the pressure on the rolls to control the thickness.
