Proposed herein is a method of controlling the thickness of strip stock being rolled between rolls mounted in the roll stand of a mill. An adjusting force is developed to move the supports of one of the rolls, this force exceeding the rolling force and being directed oppositely thereto. Another force prevents the supports of the rolls from moving towards each other and balances the difference between the adjusting force and the rolling force. The factor of proportionality between the movement of the roll supports and the balancing force is in a definite predetermined ratio with the mill stand stiffness factor. The adjusting force is changed in the course of strip stock deformation to compensate for the roll gap variation in proportion to the rolling force according to the following formula:

Method of controlling the thickness of strip stock being rolled

The device proposed herein incorporates the following components located on both sides of the roll mill stand: hydraulic dynamometers for absorbing the rolling force; hydraulic cylinders for creating and exerting the adjusting force; and valves for oil pressure control in the hydraulic cylinder interior. The hydraulic dynamometers are situated between the supports of one of the rolls and the roll mill stand housing and the hydraulic cylinders are interposed between the supports of the other roll and the roll mill stand housing. The interior spaces of said cylinder and the dynamometer communicate with pumping units that deliver oil thereto so as to build up a pressure in the spaces which is in excess of the rolling force. The valves regulate the pressure effective in the hydraulic cylinder interior in direct proportion to the rolling force and the deforming force of the elastic members of the device.
