Center Position Control of Cold Rolling Mills Using Cofficient Diagram Method

In this paper, coefficient diagram method is applied to a center position controller design of the web. The significant property of this controller is the designer can design the controller simultaneously a good balance of stability, response, and robustness. Manabe's CDM is useless for designing high-order plant. We proposed a modified CDM which can be called as approximated pole placement method. The practicality of the proposed method is shown through computer simulation.
