Abstract

See full text

A sheet crown control method and apparatus for use in endless rolling in which consecutively fed sheets are joined to each other to be continuously rolled through a rolling equipment line. The rolling equipment line includes a junction device for joining consecutively fed sheets to each other, a plurality of stands arranged in tandem on the downstream side of the junction device and having a roll bender load adjusting mechanism and a roll crossing mechanism. The roll cross angle of rolls incorporated in a stand of each rolling mill is set at a predetermined value beforehand if there is a roll cross angle that will enable a target sheet crown to be applied to each sheet and the roll bender load of each stand is adjusted on-line, thereby effecting sheet crown control. Rolling also may be performed while adjusting the roll cross angle of rolls incorporated in stands of each rolling mill on-line together with the roll bender load. The roll bender load and the roll cross load may be adjusted in a transition region where a junction between sheets exists or in a stationary region where sheets of the same material follow one after another.
