The invention discloses a rolling method based on a heated pure nickel plate. The rolling method comprises a plate blank preheating stage, a plate blank first-section heating stage, a plate blank second-section heating stage, a plate blank soaking stage, plate blank rough rolling, oxide skin treatment before finish rolling, plate finish rolling, curling and acid pickling annealing. According to the method, the plate blank is heated at a temperature of 150-220 DEG C/min, so that the situation that the nickel plate blank is rapidly heated from the room temperature, internal crystals are changed, and a yield is reduced is avoided; and meanwhile, in a heating process of the first-stage heating, the second-stage heating and the soaking stage, temperature control can be more accurate through control over the temperature of an upper burner and the temperature of a lower burner in a heating process; a high-pressure water descaling system is used for cleaning oxide skin on the surface of a plate blank before finish rolling, the oxide skin is prevented from being pressed into the surface of follow-up strip steel; and meanwhile, the nickel plate is rolled through seven-pass downward pressing and eight finish rolling mills in the rough rolling process, so that the surface of the rolled nickel plate is free of roller marks, high in flatness and good in surface glossiness.
