When an opposite direction shift for obtaining a required equivalent roll crown and a same direction shift for wear dispersion are used in combination, a difference occurs in the roll gap at both edge portions in the width direction of a rolling target material. Therefore, the difference between a work-side screw down position and a drive-side screw down position is changed so that the roll gap difference between both the edge portions in the width direction of the rolling target material is made close to zero. As a result, the distance between the work roll shafts on a work side and a drive side is changed, so that the roll gap difference at both ends in the width direction of the rolling target material approaches zero. Therefore, the wear of the work rolls can be dispersed while maintaining the equivalent roll crown.

The invention relates to a method and a regulating device for regulating a rolling process, wherein a rolling material is rolled in a rolling gap between two working rollers of a rolling stand. According to the invention, a desired forward slip value (f.sub.s) for a forward slip (f) of the rolling material is specified, and an actual forward slip value (f.sub.M) of the forward slip (f) of the rolling material is ascertained. The forward slip (f) of the rolling material is regulated to the desired forward slip value (f.sub.s) in that a lubricant rate (u.sub.R) of a lubricant is applied to the rolling material and/or at least one working roller depending on the actual forward slip value (f.sub.M) and the desired forward slip value (f.sub.s).

The present invention is a roll press machine including: a one side roll supporting part configured to support a one side roll in such a manner that the one side roll is rotatable, another side roll supporting part configured to support another side roll in such a manner that the other side roll is rotatable, and a moving apparatus using an electric motor and configured to move the one side roll supporting part and/or the other side roll supporting part relative to each other to control a gap between the one side roll and the other side roll. A position of a front edge of a work supplied into the gap is detected by a position sensor, and the moving apparatus is controlled based on detection result. The gap is set to a consolidating gap at a timing when the front edge of the work has passed through a narrowest position of the gap by a first predetermined distance and that the gap is maintained larger than the consolidation gap until the front edge of the work has passed through the narrowest position of the gap by the first predetermined distance.
