2. Rolling Mill classification Rolling mill is used to reduce successively the thickness of the metal strip as per the requirement. Hot rolling mills are used for mass thickness reduction at high temperatures, whereas the cold rolling mills are used as secondary rolling operations to attain more precise dimensional and mechanical properties.
Accurate methods of predicting the strip thickness profile and strip flatness are important in rolling mill design, rolling schedule set-up, control of mill flatness actuators, and optimization of ground roll profiles. The corresponding dynamic deflection model enables solution of the standard eigenvalue problem to determine natural frequencies ...
A system for controlling the output of a rolling mill. An intelligent control system is part of a control loop between the mill and a PID controller. The control loop does not rely on the output of an exit gauge sensor in normal operation. The intelligent control system can be an artificial neural network or a parallel cascade network, and has an output node for generating an output signal ...

In rolling mills, intermediate steel products are given their final shape and dimension in a series of shaping and finishing operations. Most of the slabs are heated in reheating furnaces and rolled into final shape in hot– or cold–rolling or finishing mills. While some products (e.g. reinforcement bars, steel plates) only require hot-rolling, some others may require both hot– and cold ...
