DETERMINING A SENSITIVITY OF A TARGET VARIABLE OF A ROLLING MATERIAL FROM AN OPERATING VARIABLE OF A HOT ROLLING MILL

A control device for a section of a hot rolling mill is supplied with respective primary data for a plurality of rolling materials and respective preliminary target values for the target variables of the respective rolling material. The respective primary data describes the respective rolling material before being supplied to the section of the hot rolling mill. The respective preliminary target values of the target variables describe a desired target state of the respective rolling material after passing through the section of the hot rolling mill. At least one of the target variables is a particular target variable, whereby the control device determines a respective final target value in such a way that it changes the respective preliminary target value by a respective offset. The respective offset is determined independently of the primary data and the other particular target variables and the normal target variables for the respective rolling material.

METHOD FOR PRODUCING A THICKNESS-PROFILED METAL STRIP
20170348746 · 2017-12-07 ·

A method for producing a thickness-profiled metal strip in which at least one opening is produced in the metal strip and in a subsequent step, the metal strip is longitudinally rolled with at least one roller that penetrates into the metal strip in some regions across its strip width and thus a thickness profiling at least in the width direction of the metal strip is produced. In order to improve the reproducibility of the method, what is proposed is that at least one hole passing through the metal strip is produced as an opening in the metal strip, over which hole the roller that penetrates into the metal strip longitudinally rolls in order to produce the thickness profiling in the width direction of the metal strip.
