Abstract: Provided is a method of manufacturing a grain-oriented electrical steel sheet that has a uniform texture all along the longitudinal direction and has small fluctuations in magnetic properties. The method includes subjecting a predetermined hot-rolled and annealed sheet to cold rolling, where at least one time of cold rolling has a total rolling reduction of 80 % or more and is performed by a tandem mill, rolling performed in at least one stand of the tandem mill is performed under conditions of a rolling reduction of 30 % or more and a biting temperature To °C of a work roll of the stand, and a temperature at which either or both of a leading end and a tail end of the hot-rolled and annealed sheet are bitten by the work roll is 70° C. or higher and at least 10° C. higher than the temperature To °C.

Abstract: Provided is a production method for a grain-oriented electrical steel sheet with which stable magnetic properties are obtained in the same coil. The method comprises: hot rolling a steel slab having a predetermined chemical composition, followed by annealing to obtain a hot-rolled and annealed sheet; cold rolling the hot-rolled and annealed sheet one time, or two times or more with intermediate annealing being performed therebetween, to obtain a cold-rolled sheet, followed by subjecting to primary and secondary recrystallization annealing, wherein in the cold rolling, a rolling reduction ratio is 80% or more at least one time out of the one time or two times or more, and a steel sheet temperature T0 (° C.) while a rolling rate is a set value R0 (mpm) and a steel sheet temperature T1 (° C.) while the rolling rate is less than or equal to 0.5×R0 (mpm) satisfy a formula (1).
