Transverse thickness difference is a key index of plate shape for electrical steel product. This paper analyzed and optimized original automatic control system for transverse thickness difference of MH UCMW rolling mill. By adding Multi-points assessment in edge drop region, steep drop width is reduced, and system yield is improved; By optimizing rigid control strategy into flexible control strategy, using three stands control instead of two stands, and rationally allocating each stand load for edge drop control, transverse thickness difference quality level is improved, and rolling stability is promoted. Based on control system optimization, control ability for transverse thickness difference is significantly improved, head-tail ultra gauge length is shortened from 110 meter to 50 meter, and transverse thickness difference high-quality ratio is improved from 35% to 87%.
Taking MH UCMW cold tandem mill as research object, broken edge wave generating mechanism and characteristics were analyzed which caused by edge drop control. Based on original control strategy, an automatic edge wave control model was developed, and edge drop control strategy was optimized. Effect of taper work roll shifting and taper shape on broken edge wave were analyzed by actual rolling data. Results show that broken edge wave decreases with effective contact depth increasing of taper work roller and strip. Optimized control system application eliminate broken edge wave, and improve automatic shape control accuracy.
