STRIP THICKNESS REGULATIONS IN COLD-ROLLING

In all areas of industrial production priority is given to quality in combination with marketability of the product. In the cold rolling process of strips, in addition to the rising demands on flatness and surface properties, the tolerances to be achieved are of utmost importance. During rolling, these tolerances are influenced by a variety of parameters which makes an efficient system of strip thickness specifications especially important. In this contribution an indirect roll gap control (CVF) is presented which is based on volume comparison.
