Rolling process to fabricate a strip with even thickness is significant to enhance the quality of the strip. The thickness of a strip can be effectively controlled by pair-cross mills. However, pair-cross mill generates thrust in the axial direction of roller and causes skewness, deflection, twist and even accidental roll chock failure. Therefore, accurate estimation of the thrust of the pair-cross mill during rolling process is necessary to monitor the failure of roll and the quality of products. An empirical equation given by Mitsubishi Heavy Industry (MHI) is hitherto employed, where the thrust is expressed in terms of rolling force, reduction ratio and crossed angle. However it turns out that the MHI empirical equation provides somehow inaccurate and unsuitable thrust in practical rolling processes. Moreover, we learn that three parameters involved in MHI equation are coupled each other. In this paper, axiomatic design principle is employed to select appropriate parameters involved in approximate equation in order to make parameters uncoupled. A quadratic equation using response surface method with new parameters is suggested. The accuracy of the approximate model is examined by comparing with real experimental data.

The plate crown and shape control of plate rolling has become important to obtain not only improved quality but also better yield of products and higher work ratio of rolling. Therefore, the development of a new plate crown and shape control system has been demanded in plate rolling mill. The 3rd Plate Rolling Works of POSCO introduced the new unique system

Newly constructed plate shape control system, using attached shape measuring instruments and work roll bender, was put in service in No. 2 Plate Mill, POSCO. Recently, customers demand the improvement of flatness and plate crown accuracy. Many competition Plate Mill introducted shape control system, for example, pair cross mill, work roll bender which includes shape measuring instrument and shape control mathematical models, and No. 2 Plate Mill, POSCO introducted work roll bender and shape measuring instruments. This report describes the properties of No. 2 Plate Mill shape control system and work roll bender.

The strip profile and shape control is one of the most important technologies in Hot Rolling Mill System. Because the unbalance of strip´s shape and wave appearance between stands has a bad effect on Hot Rolling Mill System by making the inferior thickness, strip´s damage and so forth in factories. Many competition Plate Mill introduced shape control system, for example, pair cross-mill, work roll bender, which includes shape measuring instruments and shape control mathematical models. Shape meter, which is equipped for flatness, only does feedback control at the top of coil. And, for crown, we depend on initial setup value and there is no feedback control. Therefore we predict the shape of strip using rolling pressure, bender force and tension of inter-stand in ...

A three dimensional finite element-based computer simulator is presented for the analysis of the thermomechanical behaviors of rolls and strip during hot strip rolling. The simulator is capable of predicting the strip profiles in a 4 high mill stand, and in particular, can account for the effect of bender forces and pair cross angles. The structure of the simulator as well as various numerical schemes employed are described. The capability of the simulator is demonstrated through applications to some selected set of process conditions.

In hot roiling process, new rolling mills have been apapted to strip rolling but we can usually experience the problem of snaking of strip. This phenomenon was arisen by nonsymmetric rolling and on-centering and cambering of a strip and other mill conditions. Three dimensional analysis for strip rolling predicted the influence of nonsymmetric rolling, off-centering and pair crossing system This study evaluated the fundamental characteristics of snaking of a strip to optimize the operating condition for trouble free rolling.

The looper of a hot strip finishing mill is installed between each pair of stands and plays a key role to enhance the product quality of strip by controlling the tension and height of strip in each inter-stand. Though the conventional looper control has achieved the mass products of strip so far, it has difficulties not only tuning gains by means of errors which are caused by coupling effects between strip tension and looper angle both utilizing tension feedback. Therefore, the non-interactive control employing cross controller and tension feedback has been introduced in looper control system in order to overcome the coupling effects existing between tension and looper angle and track the reference tension efficiently. In this paper, we present the cross controllers which play a role to decouple reciprocal effects between tension and looper angle and show better performance.
