[0002] Hot continuous rolling strip products are basic raw materials for high-end products such as national defense, transportation and energy. Although the automation level of the processing process is high, there are still common problems such as poor three-dimensional size control precision and poor plate shape. The width control precision in the hot continuous rolling process is one of the important indicators of the quality of the hot continuous rolling coil, but in the actual production process of the hot continuous rolling, in the cross-rolling process of steel grade switching, thickness switching, width switching and the like, the long-term learning coefficient used in the control model is the corresponding model parameter when the product was produced last time. In the calculation of the rolling schedule setting this time, the equipment conditions, working conditions and rolling states all change, but the model is not adjusted for these changes, resulting in width control deviation. Therefore, a width control method for cross-rolling in hot continuous rolling is urgently needed to ensure the stability and width control precision of the hot continuous rolling strip rolling process.
