<p>A method is provided for controlling interstand tension by roll gap adjustment to reduce gage variations caused by unplanned rolling velocity changes wherein a signal proportional to the tension changes produced by deviations from the desired speed ratio of adjacent stands (1,2) is used to modify the conventional tension error signal before the latter signal is used to control roll gap thereby discriminating between tension changes caused by mill stand or strip physical changes, which it corrects, and tension changes caused by unplanned speed disturbances, which it ignores instead of maintaining constant tension. The resulting system exhibits improved tolerance for imperfect stand speed control. <IMAGE></p> |
