Abstract

Under the background of industry 4.0, advanced strip control process is a central part of rolling intelligent manufacturing. In the mainstream rolling control process, the work roll bending and the intermediate roll bending are turned on at the same time. Both stepwise methods and alternative methods are conducted by sacrificing adjustment ability. In this paper, the dimension of influencing factors is increased by considering adjustment direction as constraint operator. In the rolling control process, a new intelligent assignation strategy of collaborative optimization based on artificial neural networks and Topkis–Veinott has been proposed. In AINTV collaborative optimization, the thought patterns of searching and the thought patterns of learning are combined. Five field test experiments are conducted and the flatness in different rolling stages and in different strip area is analyzed.
