For best results, roll the strip in as few passes as you can handle. +The results aren’t accurate for broad, thin strips. +Width-to-thickness ratios of up to 6:1 are known to be good; ratios of +12:1 or more don't work: strips don’t get as wide as predicted by +our model. We need to collect more data and construct a better model to +handle this case properly. + +
