Abstract :
This paper describes how to control strip gauge, looper angle, and strip tension for a hot strip finishing mill and the application result. This is based on the optimal servo theory and the model decoupling method. In the finishing mill process, there exists mutual interaction among strip gauge, looper angle, and strip tension. Conventionally, each of them is controlled independently. To improve the control performance, multivariable control considering this interaction is applied to all production
