Abstract

Hot strips are presently being rolled out with considerable thickness accuracy. This has been made possible due to superordinated control system comprising of adaptive setup model, monitor thickness control, automatic gauge control, tension and looper control, hydraulic gap control etc.
The present work is, however, confined to modeling and simulation studies of hydraulic gap control system in the last stand of the finishig mill of a typical hot strip mill (HSM). The simulation results based on the model show that the system operates effectively to provide high thickness accuracy and good response behavior.
