A Flatness Control System Design Based on Actuator Efficiency Factors for Cold Rolling Mill

Abstract:

In order to improve the flatness of cold rolled strips, strategies of closed loop feedback flatness control and rolling force feed forward control were established respectively, based on actuator efficiency factors. As the basis of flatness control system, efficiencies of flatness actuators provide a quantitative description to the law of flatness control. For the purpose of obtaining accurate efficiency factors matrixes of actuators, a self-learning model of actuator efficiency factors was established. The precision of actuator efficiency factors could be improved continuously by correlative measurement flatness data inputs. Meanwhile, the self-learning model of actuator efficiency factors permits the application of this flatness control for all possible types of actuators and every stand type. The developed flatness control system has been applied to a 1250mm single stand 6-H reversible UCM cold mill. Applications show that the flatness control system based on actuator efficiency factors is capable to obtain good flatness.
