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.

production of thin steel strips with 0.18-0.26 mm thickness is about 0.75 of annual production of the two stand reversing cold mill, while its efficiency is 60%. this is due to the fact that after montaging the grinded work rolls, rolling thin steel strips (with thicknesses less than 0.18 millimeters) is unavailable. initially, unsuitable surface roughness, the friction between rolls and the st...

In this paper, properties of slab deformation in sizing press mill as one of the slab reduction processes in hot rolling mills have been evaluated using the elastoviscoplastic finite element method with explicit formulation. Effect of prarameters such as initial slab width and thickness, reduction, feed pitch, and anvil speed on factors such as dogbone formation, head and tail fishtail profile,...

The mechanical rolling conditions in hot strip mills are precisely defined by various variables, which are taken directly froth the rolling schedule (separation force, torque. speed. strip thickness) or calculated from figures of the rolling schedule and dimensions of the mill (strip reduction, roll diameter etc.). These variables allow to describe the mechanical rolling conditions of all passe...

It is known that Al added to the Zn coating layer of hot-dip galvanized steel sheets (GI) diffuses surface at room temperature and forms Al-based oxides in air. In order understand diffusion behavior layer, this study investigated effect aging on segregation GI with without temper rolling (skinpass rolling) using a material weight about 56 g/m2 an content approximately 0.20 mass%. The specimens...

Thickness accuracy of plate production depends on Automatic Gauge Control (AGC) in the plate mill area. A typical modern thickness control system design and implementation of a steel plate mill is discussed together with the impact on the design of process models, available measurements, available control actuators and material properties. A highlevel software design approach provides the abili...
