A cross-rolling mill for rolling a block over a mandrel forms a hollow block. It includes a plurality of working rollers, each of which exerts a substantially radially aligned rolling force onto the block. The working rollers are supported in a roll stand, and the gap between the working rollers and preferably also the alignment of the rolling axis of at least one of the working rollers relative to the block can be modified. Hydraulic actuators, preferably hydraulic capsules, are provided in order to modify the rolling gap and preferably also the alignment of the rolling axis of at least one of the working rollers relative to the block.

A model (8) is based on mathematical-physical equations. The model models the production of a particular output product (1) from at least one input product (2) supplied in each case to an installation in the raw materials industry on the basis of operation (B) of the installation. During production of the output products (1), the installation is controlled by a control device (5) in such a manner that particular actual operation (B) of the installation corresponds as far as possible to particular desired operation (B*) of the installation. The desired operation (B*) is determined by the control device (5) using the model (8) of the installation. The model (8) is parameterized according to a number of first model parameters (P1) for the purpose of modelling the installation. After a multiplicity of output products (1) have been produced in each case, actual sizes (A) of the output products (1) in the particular multiplicity are compared with expected sizes (A′) of the output products (1) in the particular multiplicity. On the basis of the comparison, the first model parameters (P1) are newly determined and the model (8) in the control device (5) is newly parameterized according to the new values of the first model parameters (P1). After this time, the desired operation (B*) is determined by the control device (5) using the newly parameterized model (8) of the installation in the raw materials industry. The expected sizes (A′) are determined by means of the model (8), wherein the determination of the expected sizes (A′) is based on the actual operation (B) of the installation.

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.

Rolling stock (2) composed of metal is rolled in rolling stands (3a to 3f) of a roll train (1) under the control of a control device. The control device, on the basis of a variable (δQ) (which is characteristic of the change in the cross section with which the rolling stock (2) is supposed to run out of a rolling stand (3e) of the roll train (1)), first determines all provisional manipulated variables (Sb to Se) for the rolling stand (3e) and rolling stands (3b to 3d) located upstream of the rolling stand (3e), and uses said provisional manipulated variables to determine final manipulated variables (Sb′ to Se′), which influence the cross section with which the rolling stock (2) runs out of the respective rolling stand (3b to 3e). The control device determines the provisional manipulated variables (Sb to Sd) for the upstream rolling stands (3b to 3d) by frequency filtering.

Angles of an upper-side pair of an upper work roll 110A and an upper backup roll 120A, and a lower-side pair of a lower work roll 110B and a lower backup roll 120B are adjusted in a state where the upper-side pair is kept parallel and in a state where the lower-side pair is kept parallel. Thereafter, work-roll pressing apparatuses 130A and 130B, work-roll position control apparatuses 140A and 140B, backup-roll pressing apparatuses 150A and 150B, and backup-roll position control apparatuses 160A and 160B are controlled such that the angles of the upper work roll 110A and the lower work roll 110B are adjusted in a state where the angles of the upper backup roll 120A and the lower backup roll 120B are maintained.
