Practical Force Control on the Last Stand of a Hot Strip Mill

Serrano, Eleazar Hoose

Abstract Details

2017, Master of Science, University of Toledo, Electrical Engineering.
Roll force control is a commonly practiced type of control used in cold mills to help give the overall end product a desired surface quality. It is becoming more advantageous for manufactures to utilize hot band material over cold band due to processing cost. By utilizing roll force control in a hot strip mill, the desired surface quality can be obtained to compete against those of a cold mill product, specifically for material that will be painted. This work concerns the derivation and implementation of a practical force control model in the last stand of a hot strip mill. Integration of the force control model coupled with gauge control models in previous stands is investigated in regards to gauge tolerances. Discussion of tuning parameters and procedures is presented. Stability of the force control model is interrogated independently and then repeated after integration. Lastly, simulation results are compared with that of the installed controller.
