A method for the automatic calibration of vertical rolls of a vertical rolling stand, each of which is supported in a vertical roll unit which is adjustable with respect to a predetermined center line of a plurality of components arranged in a rolling train, including the steps of a) moving the vertical roll units into a calibration position transverse to the center line against at least one stationary stop of the vertical rolling stand, which has a certain known position with respect to the center line, b) calculating a calibrated initial distance Abetween an outer edge of a vertical roll facing a rolled stock or the center line and the center line in the calibration position, and c) adjusting the vertical roll units to a defined operating position.

Method for automatically calibrating vertical rollers of a vertical roller frame and calibration arrangement for carrying out said method

A method for producing a metal article, in particular a slab, a pre-strip, a strip, or a sheet, in which the article is first conveyed in the conveying direction through a scale washer and then through a rolling mill, wherein the rolling mill has at least one roll stand, in particular a first roll stand in the conveying direction. The article is subjected in the scale washer to at least one upper row of nozzles, which descales the upper side of the article, and to at least one lower row of nozzles, which descales the lower side of the article.
