Abstract
The invention provides a method for controlling a continuous rolling mill having at least ith and (i+1)th stands and a control apparatus therefor, wherein an exit strip thickness reference value of an automatic gauge control is changed in accordance with a predetermined strip length during size changing and roll gap is corrected so as to change a strip thickness at an exit side of the ith stand, when a size (e.g., thickness) is changed during rolling, and, at the same time, a roll peripheral speed of the ith stand is changed in correspondence with a change in forward slip (a change in entry strip thickness, a change in exit strip thickness, and a change in resistance to deformation) of the ith stand as well as changes in forward slip, exit strip thickness, entry strip thickness and roll peripheral speed of the (i+1)th stand, so as to make the strip speed at the exit side of the ith stand coincide with that at the entry side of the (i+1)th stand, thereby minimizing the interstand tension and performing smooth size changing.
