trol loops to compensate backup roll eccentricity and harmonic hardness variation allows a significant improvement in strip thickness performance. These measures were successfully implemented as an extension to an exist ing two-stand aluminium cold rolling mill. An essential quality characteristic in the cold rolling sector is the minimum thickness deviation that can be achieved at final gauge,...

A fuzzy logic control (FLC) is designed to maintain constant tension for tandem rolling mills. Genetic algorithm (GA) is used as self-organization technique for FLC to locate the optimal parameters. Simulation results verify the superior performance of genetic fuzzy controller. Keywords-tension control, fuzzy logic, genetic fuzzy system, rolling mill.

Cold rolling of steel is one of the most important metal forming processes so an accurate control of its parameters during the process is necessary. In this paper, the friction coefficient has been proposed as a function of cold rolling parameters such as forward slip, forward and backward tensile stresses ,strip thickness, static deformation, resistance of strip before and after rolling ,strip...

Strip profile control in cold rolling of thin strip is a difficult and challenge problem found in industry. Currently using the novel type of strip rolling mill, such as the work roll crossing and shifting is the one of the main methods to control the strip profile quality in cold rolling. In this paper, 3-D finite element simulation models of the thin strip profile in cold rolling for the work...

The most important purpose of cold rolling processes, in addition to obtaining appropriate mechanical features, is to achieve very low and more precise thicknesses’, the issue that is not possible in hot rolling processes. Today, most cold rolling lines designed continuously and usually consist of 4 to 6 fourroller rolling rack. Finished surface of obtained sheets of cold rolling is Harder and ...

A fuzzy logic controller (FLC) is designed to maintain constant tension for tandem rolling mills. Envisioning fuzzy inference system as neural network and introducing tutor, backward propagation algorithm is used as self-organization technique for FLC to approach the best parameters under supervision. Simulation results exhibit the generalization and adaptivity of neuro-fuzzy controller in offl...
