<p>FRICTION COMPENSATION IN A ROLLING MILL HAVING AUTOMATIC GAGE CONTROL A rolling mill stand which includes roller elements for reducing the thickness of a workpiece which is passed therebetween further includes means for adjusting the gap between the roller elements and means for sensing the roll separation force occasioned by passing the workpiece between the roll elements. The stand also includes means for sensing the roller elements position and an automatic gage control means for controlling the means for adjusting the gap as a function of the roll separation force. Associated with the rolling mill stand is a method of compensating for friction forces within the rolling mill stand occuring as a result of movement of the roller elements so as to improve the accuracy and stability of the automatic gage control.</p> |
