During the operation of six-high temper mills on continuous annealing lines, periodic transverse roll mark defects frequently appear on the strip surface right after roll change and mill closing. This surface defect is known as temper mill transverse roll mark. The defect interval matches the circumference of the work roll

High-end cold-rolled products such as home appliance sheets, automotive sheets and electrical steel require extremely strict strip shape quality. Therefore, strip shape control has become a core technology in cold rolling process optimization, equipment research and intelligent control. Traditional shape adjustment methods include symmetric roll bending, roll tilting and segmented

Manufacturers improve productivity for this mill through three main methods. They increase coil weight, raise rolling speed and lift equipment operating rates. Modern cold rolled steel coils commonly reach 40 tons. Some single coils can hit 60 tons. Five-stand mill units reach a maximum rolling speed of 37.5 m/s. Most

Most conventional tandem cold rolling mills run in single-coil batch mode. Operators feed one steel coil at a time through multiple rolling stands. This setup cannot deliver truly continuous production. Batch rolling creates unstable transition stages. These stages include strip threading, tail dropping, speed shifts and slowdowns at weld seams.

Introduction The six‑high cold rolling mill flatness control technology largely determines the final quality of cold‑rolled strip steel. Besides, cold‑rolled strip serves many core industries such as automobile manufacturing, home appliances and chemical production. Today’s market sets stricter requirements for strip thickness and flatness. Therefore, engineers focus heavily on flatness
