Our Automatic Gauge Control technology includes the following:

• Mill stand control:
  • Hydraulic gap control (HGC)
  • Work roll bend control (WRB)
  • Intermediate roll bend control (IRB for 6-Hi)
  • Cluster control (10-Hi)
• Position/Gap/Force control
• Stack synchronisation
• Stack calibration
• Mill spring acquisition
• Roll eccentricity control (REC)
• Model based predictive AGC feedback control
• Model based predictive AGC feedforward control
• Model based predictive AGC mass-flow control
• AGC gaugementer control
• AGC elongation control
• AGC spillover for foil rolling (e.g. Tension – Speed)
• Force threading for gap modes
• Threading force protection
• Reduced force mode
• Tailout force protection
• Mill stand safety
