Generally RF AGC (Roll Force Automatic Gauge Control) controls the roll gap using the variation of rolling force caused by the roll eccentricity and the entry thickness of material, but RE AGC takes the bad effect of the roll eccentricity. The Feed-forward (FF) AGC method, which controls the next stand roll gap by the estimation of the thickness variation due to skid mark is needed to supplement the shortage of RF AGC. In this paper, an adaptive filtering method which takes account of the kind of material, the final objective thickness and the rolling speed is proposed to predict skid mark thickness variation. In addition, an improved estimation method of control point using a speedometer and looper angle is suggested. Via on line test, the performance improvement of the suggested FF AGC method is verified.

Generally a RF AGC controls the roll gap using the variation of rolling force caused by the roll eccentricity and the entry thickness of material, but these can not be classified. The Feed- forward AGC method, which controls the next stand roll 9ap by estimation the skid mark of the previous stand output thickness is needed to supplement the shortage of RF AGC. In this paper, an improved filtering method of skid mark which take account of the kinds of materials, the final objective thickness and the roll speed is proposed, In addition, an improved estimation method of control point using the speedometer and looper angle is suggested, Via simulation, the performance improvement of the suggested FF AGC method is verified.

In this paper, we design a H^\infty servo controller for gauge control of tandem cold mill. To improve the performance of the AGC(Aotomatic Gauge Control) system based on the Taylor linearized model of tandem cold mill, the H^\infty servo controller is designed to satisfy robust stability, disturbance attenuation and robust tracking properties. The H^\infty servo controller problem is modified as an usual H^\infty control problem, and the solvability condition of the H^\infty servo problem depends on the solvability of the modified H^\infty control problem. Since this modified problem does not satisfied standard assumptions for the H^\infty control problem, it is solved by an LMI(Linear Matrix Inequality) technique. Consequently, the comparison between the H^\infty servo controller and the existing PID/FF(FeedForward) controller shows the usefulness of this study.
