  • Rolling mill gauge control system
    Patent number: 4244025
    Abstract: An automatic gauge control system for screwdown adjustment of a cold rolling mill using separate feed-forward and feed-backward screwdown adjustments and wherein the feed-backward screwdown adjustment is based on the difference between a short term output gauge average and an input gauge rolling average which is adaptively modified with a statistical analysis of output gauge variations and wherein the feed-forward screwdown adjustment is based on a net weighted iput gauge variation adaptively controlled in accordance with a statistical analysis of input and output gauge variations.
    Type: Grant

  • Rolling mill gauge control system
    Patent number: 4125004
    Abstract: An automatic feed backward gauge control system for screwdown adjustment of a cold rolling mill using a mill screwdown model employing measured output gauge and simulated input gauge variables and adaptive by modification of the simulated input gauge to reflect output gauge offset and drift errors in accordance with statistical analysis of sample comparisons of expected and measured output gauge.
