Abstract
A rolling mill in which rolls are displaced in axial direction thereof during operation in dependence on the width, profile and the like factors of a material being rolled. A real rolling load difference is derived by removing a rolling load change components due to a moment produced upon displacement of the rolls from a difference in the rolling load between an operating side and a driving side of the rolling mill, and is utilized for correcting the rolling asymmetry.
Claims6
A method of correcting asymmetrical condition in a rolling mill in which predetermined rolls are displaced in the respective axial direction thereof during rolling operation, comprising steps of determining a real rolling load difference by eliminating rolling load change components due to a moment produced upon axial displacement of said rolls from a rolling load difference appearing across an operating side and a driving side of said rolling mill, and correcting said asymmetrical condition on the basis of said real rolling load difference.
In a rolling mill in which predetermined rolls are displaced in the axial directions thereof during rolling operation, an apparatus for correcting asymmetrical condition in said rolling mill by adjusting selected one of screw-down quantity and roll being quantity at operating and driving sides of said rolling mill on the basis of a rolling load difference appearing across said operating and driving sides, said apparatus comprising means for detecting and arithmetically determining rolling load change components due to a moment produced upon displacement of said rolls, means for detecting and arithmetically determining a rolling load difference appearing across the operating and driving sides of said rolling mill, and means for arithmetically determining a real rolling load difference by eleminating said rolling load change components due to said moment from said rolling load difference, said real rolling load difference being utilized to correct the asymmetrical condition.
