A meandering amount arithmetically operating device of a meandering amount measurement device calculates the meandering amount of a steel sheet using a drive side edge site z(N) and a work side edge sites z(N) at a current time when a measurement reliability determination unit determines that both the drive side edge site z(N) and the work side edge sites z(N) at the current time have high reliability. When only one of the drive side edge site z(N) and the work side edge site z(N) at the current time is determined to have high reliability, the other edge site is calculated by interpolation using the number of pixels W from a sheet width updating unit with the drive side edge sites z(N) or the work side edge site z(N) at the current time having high reliability as a reference.

Notching equipment for a steel strip, a method of notching a steel strip, a cold rolling equipment, and a method of cold rolling that make it possible to perform cold rolling on a material without weld breaks, even if the material is a brittle material or a high alloy material such as a silicon steel sheet or a high-tensile steel sheet with high Si and Mn contents. The notching equipment includes a shearing device and a grinding device. The shearing device performs shearing on both edge portions in the steel-strip width direction including the joint to form a first notch. The grinding device grinds end surfaces of both the edge portions of the joint in the steel-strip width direction to form a second notch.
