This paper handles main automation facilities and important control issues for hot rolling mill processes. Starting from the general procedures of production cycle, detailed tension control applications are handled based on field experiences and published research papers. Nowadays, quality control and delivery time control for products is becoming more and more important as the client demand is tighter than any other period. In this respect, control technology in steel making process takes very important position. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to share control problems with the people in academic field and by doing so, to get new and striking solution for the problems.

Today, hot rolled mill plant are currently operating 24 hours a day. The main processes of hot-rolled steel mill are Reheating Furnace, Roughing Mill, Fishing Mill and the Down Coiler. In the process checking over the thickness and width of rolled material, temperature control is an important factor. It is quite often the cause of the work breakdown and find a bad elements for product. After the shipping out the product, when a claim occurs requires an investigation. In each process of the conventional thickness gauge, width, and thermometer. Operation by an independent data acquisition and this monitoring is problematic and straining of the operator. The monitoring process the data of each function and incorporate monitoring results can also check future work. The installation of this system will improve our efficiency and productivity. In the rolling process by developing more efficient operating quality monitoring system, this will be made possible.

Work roll wear in the cold rolling of steel strip is strongly affected by rolling materials, rolling conditions and lubrication. Tests were performed to find the effects of rolling materials under the same lubricating conditions. Surface roughness of cold rolled steel strip as well as the coating technique itself is quite improtant in obtaining high image clarity of electronic products and car outer panels. Therefore this paper reviews for improvement of roughness and peak count about the surface of Cr coated work roll is investigated from the actual temper mill. The conclusions were obtained as follows; 1) Work roll wear in the cold rolling of steel strip is strongly affected by carbon contents of rolling materials, but there is not a separating force and total reduction ratio. 2) The roughness of strip surface is larger in the direction of width than in roll direction. 3) The electro-discharge textured roll has more uniform roughness distribu- tion than shot blasted roll and it's life time is two times longer than shot blasted because it has more harmonic wave roughness, and the higher peak count of surface roughness. 4) The life time of Cr coated work roll is 2 times longer than that of shot blasted work roll and variation of peak count, roughness and life time of Cr coated work roll is similar to electro-discharge texturing work roll. 5) The proper Cr coating thickness is 10 .mu. m at the work roll of temper mill.

A mathematical model for the analysis of roll gap phenomena in the strip temper rolling process is described. A new approach to solve the roll indentation and diverging problem in modeling of severe temper rolling cases is obtained by adopting the preliminary displacement principle of two contacted rough bodies to describe the friction behavior in the roll gap. The mechanical peculiarities of the temper rolling process, such as a high friction value with high roughness rolls and a non-circular contact arc, low reduction and non-negligible entry and exit elastic zones as well as central preliminary displacement zone etc., are all taken into account. The deformation of work rolls is calculated with the influence function method and an arbitrary contact are shape is permitted. The strip deformation is modeled by the slab method and the entry and exit elastic deformation zones are included. The preliminary displacement principle is used to determine the boundaries and to calculate the friction of the central preliminary displacement zone. The model is calibrated against the production mill data and installed in the setup computer of a temper rolling mill in POSCO. The validity and precision of the model have been proven through a comparison of the measured roll forces and the predicted ones.

As recent demands for cold rolling oil for steel, not only better lubricity, but cost reduction and improvement of work environment are increasingly required. In order to respond these demands, Nihon Parkerizing has developed rolling oils with completely new emulsification system. Comparing with conventional oils, the new system indicates better iron fine removability to maintain oil concentration, due to better iron fine dispersion, and superior mill stain resistance by spray stain test.

Finite element analysis was conducted for cold roller leveler to verify numerical model of roller leveler developed by POSTECH. On-line model of roller leveler was developed to predict rapid and precise roll intermesh of roller leveler in thick plate mill. The cold roller leveler in thick plate mill was analyzed using MARC & MENTAT and the results are compared with the results of numerical model of roller leveler calculated by POSTECH.

Online models predicting roll force and forward slip of roughing mill was developed using nondimensional parameters. Using the effective inlet thickness, roll force model take into account the effect of inlet dog-bone shape of slab which take places after width reduction through edger rolling in roughing mill. The prediction accuracy of the proposed model is examined through comparison with measurements.

The modeling for the looper of a hot strip finishing mill to control the tension of the strip is presented. The looper is an arm pushing against the strip between stands in a tandem mill to keep the strip tension constant and to isolate the interactions of the adjacent stands. Tension is influenced by the difference in mass flow through the up stream and down-stream rolling stands. Tension is critical to strip quality, influencing width, gauge, and shape. This paper presents how looper angle and strip tension are controlled for a hot strip finishing mill.

Chattering phenomenon is an abrupt relative vibration between the strip and rolls of rolling machine in working. It inevitably results from the progress of the degeneration in the mill facilities. This research was carried out in order to analyze the characteristic and find the cause of chatter mark in finishing mill and it was founded that major causes are facility character of driving part and special condition in case of excessive roll force.

The main purpose of Set-up control of hot strip mill plant is to obtain the most regular thickness. Then the learning or adaptive computer control in hot strip rolling mill has been developed. But it is very difficult to keep the inter-stands load distribution ratio uniform; so that the deviation of strip flatness is not avoidable. This leads to the degradation of quality of the products. In this report, an improved method base on the steepest descent method including the computation of optimum step size. This method is applied to the off-line simulation. In consequence, the better balances of inter-stands load distribution is achieved in addition to improvements of output thickness of hot strip mill in POSCO.
