Definitions
- the invention relates to a method of automatically controlling the rate of reduction in a rolling mill for rolling a material being rolled at a predetermined rate of reduction.
- the ARC contemplates to correct the input deviation by the value corresponding to the rate of reduction, whereby the output value of rate of reduction is low as compared with the aforesaid AGCs, so that the load of the screwdown system can be low, the responsibility enhanced and the stability improved.
- a specific method of ARC in which the rate of reduction is controlled at a predetermined value, is one in which the rate of reduction is detected to control the roll gap to become equal to the desired rate of reduction in the same manner as in the ordinary strip thickness control, in which the strip thickness of the output side of the mill is measured to control the rate of reduction.
- ARC contemplates to obtain a constant rate of reduction by rolling at a predetermined pressure by use of an accumulator and rolls being low in elasticity.
- the mills having a multi- roll arrangement have hysterisis due to friction and looseness thus presenting such a disadvantage that a constant rate of reduction is not easily obtainable. It is therefore the task of t he present invention to provide a method of automatically controlling the rate of reduction in a rolling mill. capable of carrying out rolling at a constant rate of reduction being stabilized with high accuracy.
- This task is solved by a method of automatically controliing the rate of reduction in a rolling mill for rolling a material being rolled at a predetermined rate of reduction, wherein the rate of reduction is controlled in such a manner, that an output thickness of the material being rolled is calculated from an actually measured input thickness of the material and a desired rate of reduction based on the principle of the constant massflow rate of the material being rolled, an input thickness is estimated from the output thickness thus calculated, an input length and an output length and the difference between the estimated input thickness and an actually measured input thickness can be diminished to zero.
- said estimated input thickness is feedback corrected by a correction value obtained by adding an averaging difference between a calculated output thickness deviation and an actually measured thickness deviation of the material being rolled over a predetermined length of the material.
- Fig. 1 is a block diagram, showing a reduction control system, in which the method of automatically controlling the rate of reduction according to the present invention is applied to a reversing mill
- Fig. 2 is a diagram showing an example of the changes in thickness deviation in the use of the inventive method
- Fig. 3 is a diagram showing an example of recorded results of the rate of reduction in the use of the invention.
- This diagram shows input length detecting means includ- in g a small touch roll 10, a pulse generator 11 and an input length counter 101 for detecting an input length Le of an material 6 being rolled in the mill 8, an input thickness gauge 31 for detecting an actually measured input thickness Gea of the material 6 an input thickness deviation output circuit 33 for feeding a difference ⁇ Gi between the actually measured input thickness Gia fed from the input thickness gauge 31 and input thickness reference value Gis, an input thickness deviation shift register 60 for storing the input thickness deviation ⁇ Gi fed from the input thickness deviation output circuit 33, successively shifting same in accordance with the measured distances in response to output signal fed from the aforesaid input length counter 101 and feeding data immediately before the positions of the work rolls, a desired reduction output circuit 50 for calculating a desired rate of reduction R from the input thickness reference value Gis and an output thickness reference value Gos and feeding same, output length detecting means including a small touch roll 20 , a pulse generator 21 and an output length counter 111 for detecting an output length Lo of the material 6, a calculating circuit
- the inventive method is now as follows: Firstly, the input length Li is measured such that the number of rotations of the touch roll 10 provided on the center line of the deflector roll 41 disposed forwardly of the mill 8 is converted into pulses by means of the pulse generator 11 and counted by means of the input length counter 101. The digital or analog input length Li thus obtained is fed to the calculating circuit 150.
- the actually measured input thickness Gia is measured by means of the input thickness gauge 31 interposed between the deflector roll 41 and the positions of work rolls, compared with the input thickness reference value Gis in the thickness deviation output circuits 33, and the input thickness deviation AGi thus obtained is fed to the input thickness deviation shift register 60.
- the input thickness deviations ⁇ Gi thus supplied are successively shifted in response to outputs from the input length counter 101, whereby the input thickness deviation ⁇ Gi immediately before the positions of work rolls is fed from the shift register 60 to the calculating circuit 150.
- the desired rate of reduction r is calculated from the input and output thickness reference signals Gis and Gos, which have been set by the operator, in the desired reduction calculating circuit 50, and then, fed to the calculating circuit 150 as a constant.
- the output length is detected by means of the pulse generator 21 of the touch roll 20 being in contact with the deflector roll 42 disposed at the output side of the mill 8,passed through the output length counter 111, and fed to the calculating circuit 150 as the digital or analog output length signal Lo.
- an estimated input thickness Gic is calculated through the equation (1) from the abovedescribed various data, i.e., the input length Li, the output length Lo, the input thickness deviation Gi, the output thickness reference value Gos, and the desired rate of reduction r at every sampling of the input pulse generator 1 1 , an error signal ⁇ x.
- the electro-hydraulic servo-valve 92 controls the reduction action of the hydraulic cylinder 91 in a manner to diminish the aforesaid error signal Ax (ARC) to zero at all times.
- the feedback mechanism is for correcting errors in the rate of reduction due to the difference in diameter between the touch rolls at the input and output sides and the influence of the width spread of the material being rolled is performed by use of the output thickness deviation. More specifically a calculated output thickness deviation is obtained from the input thickness deviation ⁇ Gi (1-r), the calculated output thickness does obtain this compared with an actually measured output deviation ⁇ Go and the difference tnerebetween thus obtained is used as the correction value against the static control disturbance.
- a correction value C in the equaticn(3) is obtained everytime after a plurality of n samplings have been conducted and correction is carried out by the form of the equation (2).
- the rate of reduction is usually represented by (Gi-Go). Gi
- Figs. 2 and 3 are recording charts showing the deviation of strip thickness and the rate of reduction in the case of applying the present invention.
