Steel is produced through the steel-making process with a desired shape by a rolling press. Scrap is removed according to the sheet edge to improve the quality of the product. This machine is called a side trimmer. This study aimed to develop a side trimmer for automatically changing the width of the trimming knife without line stopping. This machine consists of a housing opening device and a turning device. The measuring technologies of sheet width, trimming knife rotation angle, and knife gap for increasing the control accuracy. This experiment was conducted to evaluate the performance of the developed technologies. It was reduced by 10% compared with the operation time of the conventional method.
