Abstract: A rolling mill stand for the production of rolled strip or sheet metal includes working rolls which are supported on respective supporting rolls or on intermediate rolls which are supported on supporting rolls. At least one of the rolls having a barrel contour which runs over the entire effective barrel length and can be described by a non-linear function. The barrel contour of this at least one roll having chamfers in at least one of the marginal regions of its longitudinal extent and the chamfers forming a corrected barrel contour in these marginal regions, so that inhomogeneities in the load distribution along the contact line of two adjacent rolls, and in particular in the region of the edges of the strip, are minimized.

Abstract: A rolling mill stand for production of rolled strip or sheet metal has working rolls which are supported on supporting rolls or on intermediate rolls and supporting rolls. The working rolls and/or intermediate rolls are arranged in the rolling mill stand so as to be displaceable axially with respect to one another. Each working and/or intermediate roll has a curved barrel contour which runs over the entire effective barrel length and can be described by a trigonometric function. The two barrel contours of adjacent rolls complete one another in a complementary way, in the unloaded state, solely in one specific relative axial position of the rolls of the pair of rolls, so that inhomogeneities in the load distribution along the contact line of two adjacent rolls are to be minimized.
