Design of a Semi-Real Simulation Platform for the Cold Rolling Mill

Abstract:

We designed a semi-real simulation platform for the cold rolling mill that was composed of Simulation Computer, Simulation System of Field Signal, AGC Control System, Console of Rolling Mill and the Main Control Computer, and built the mathematical models in the Simulation Comuter, for the hydraulic servo system, rolling force and thickness of strip material. In the platform, the Simulation System of Field Signal output the simulation data as standard sensor signal; the AGC Control System is the same as that used in real rolling mill system. We simulated the milling process of real rolling mill system at this platform using the field-recorded online data. The differences between simulation results and those in real system were small. Simulation results show that this simulation platform can be used in the research and optimization of rolling mill control system.
