Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of hot rolling technology, and in particular to a method and apparatus for self-learning correction of a finishing rolling model. Background Technology

[0002] In the hot strip mill production process, the setting model of the finishing mill is the core control component. Improving the accuracy of the model setting is the main goal of the staff. Self-learning function is currently the most direct and widely used method. However, measured data is the basis of self-learning. When measured data is affected by on-site working conditions or environmental interference, it will directly affect the self-learning results. In severe cases, the application of self-learning results will directly produce adverse consequences, which will further deteriorate the accuracy of the model setting.

[0003] When rolling thin strip steel, the production line may experience excessive tension in the looper within the rolling head area due to the use of a pull sleeve between the stands of the finishing mill. This results in the actual rolling force detected in the corresponding area being lower than expected. When the finishing mill model performs self-learning calculations by collecting the actual rolling force within the corresponding tension influence range, it leads to anomalies in the finishing mill self-learning process. This manifests as the learning result being opposite to the expected direction. As the learning results are continuously applied, the accuracy of the finishing mill model settings gradually deteriorates, directly affecting rolling stability and even causing problems such as scrap.

[0004] Therefore, how to correct the self-learning of the finishing mill model is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0030] Secondly, the present invention also provides a finishing mill model self-learning correction device, comprising:

[0031] The first judgment module is used to determine whether the actual rolling force of the finishing mill is effective;

[0032] The acquisition module is used to acquire, if not, the rolling force setting value, the rolling force measurement value, and the rolling force recalculation value of the finishing mill unit;

[0043] Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. While exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art.

[0044] Example 1

[0045] Embodiments of the present invention provide a self-learning correction method for a finishing mill model, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes:

[0046] S101, Determine whether the actual rolling force of the finishing mill is effective;

[0047] S102, if not, obtain the rolling force setting value, rolling force measurement value, and rolling force recalculation value of the finishing mill;

[0048] S103, determine whether the rolling force setting value, the rolling force measurement value, and the rolling force recalculation value meet the preset conditions;

[0049] S104, if so, update the finishing mill model of the finishing mill through self-learning.

[0050] First, obtain the measured data of the head of the finishing mill. This measured data includes the actual maximum tension of the finishing mill and the reference tension of the stand. The reference tension of the stand is the product of a set tension and a coefficient, where the coefficient A is set to 1.5 to 2.0, for example, it can take values ​​such as 2.0, 1.9, 1.8, 1.7, 1.6, 1.5, etc.

[0051] In a specific implementation, the frame tension evaluation table below is shown:

[0052]

[0053]

[0054] Next, execute S101 to determine whether the actual rolling force of the finishing mill is effective.

[0055] Specifically, it is determined whether the actual maximum tension is greater than the reference tension of the stand. As shown in the table above, since the actual maximum tension of F34 is greater than its reference tension, the actual rolling force of the F34 stand is determined to be invalid.

[0056] When it is determined that the actual rolling force of the finishing mill is invalid, execute S102 to obtain the rolling force setting value, rolling force measurement value, and rolling force recalculation value of the finishing mill.

[0057] The recalculated rolling force value is obtained by using measured data and recalculating the stand exit thickness, reduction rate, contact arc length, etc. based on the measured data, and then applying the rolling force formula.

[0058] Next, execute S103 to determine whether the rolling force setting value, the rolling force measurement value, and the rolling force recalculation value satisfy the preset relationship.

[0059] Specifically, it is determined whether the rolling force setpoint (force_set), the rolling force measured value (force_act), and the rolling force recalculated value (force_acal) increase or decrease sequentially, specifically by satisfying the following formula:

[0060] force_set > force_act > force_acal or force_acal > force_act > force_set

[0061] As shown in the table below, with the above-mentioned F3 stand's rolling force setting value (17962) > actual rolling force value (17333) > recalculated rolling force value (16908), it is determined that the F3 stand self-learning needs to be corrected.

[0062]

[0063] After the rolling force set value (force_set), rolling force measured value (force_act), and rolling force recalculated value (force_acal) satisfy the above-mentioned preset relationship, S104 is executed to update the finishing mill model of the finishing mill through self-learning.

[0064] This update includes three aspects.

[0065] The first aspect of the update involves correcting the recalculated rolling force value; based on the corrected recalculated rolling force value, the finishing mill model is updated through self-learning.

[0066] The correction to the recalculated rolling force is specifically performed according to the following formula:

[0067] force_acal (corrected) = force_set * coefficient B + force_acal * (1.0 – coefficient B)

[0068] The coefficient B ranges from 0.0 to 1.0. For racks F1 to F7, the coefficient B is 0.7, 0.7, 0.7, 0.6, 0.6, and 0.6, respectively.

[0069] Specifically, taking the rolling force correction coefficient B = 0.7 for the F3 stand as an example, the corrected recalculated rolling force value = 1.7962 * 0.7 + 1.6908 * (1.0 - 0.7) = 17645.8. Based on this corrected recalculated rolling force value, the finishing mill model is updated through self-learning.

[0070] Secondly, after applying the corrected recalculated rolling force value to the self-learning of the rolling force in the finishing mill model, the actual value and the calculated value of the deformation resistance are obtained; it is determined whether the actual value of the deformation resistance is equal to the calculated value of the deformation resistance; if not, the deformation resistance self-learning update is not performed.

[0071] Of course, if the actual value of the deformation resistance is not equal to the calculated value, it can be corrected using the traditional correction method.

[0072] For example, as shown in the table below:

[0073]

[0074] According to the table, the actual value of the deformation resistance of the F3 frame is not equal to the calculated value of the deformation resistance. Therefore, it is determined that the deformation resistance self-learning of the F3 frame does not need to be updated.

[0075] Thirdly, after applying the corrected recalculated rolling force value to the self-learning of the rolling force in the finishing mill model, the thickness deviation at the finishing mill exit is obtained. For example, the head thickness deviation (actual thickness - target thickness) = 0.015mm. Since the thickness deviation is greater than 0, no roll gap self-learning update is performed.

[0076] Therefore, the results before and after the finishing mill model self-learning update are shown in the table below:

[0077]

[0078]

[0079] This shows that the changes before and after the self-learning update of each rack are consistent with the expectations.

[0080] One or more technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention have at least the following technical effects or advantages:

[0081] This invention provides a self-learning correction method for a finishing mill model, comprising: determining whether the actual rolling force of the finishing mill is effective; if not, acquiring the rolling force setting value, the rolling force measurement value, and the rolling force recalculation value of the finishing mill; determining whether the rolling force setting value, the rolling force measurement value, and the rolling force recalculation value meet preset conditions; if so, updating the self-learning of the finishing mill model, thereby effectively avoiding the situation where the loop tension in the rolling head range between the stands of the finishing mill is too large and the actual rolling force detected in the corresponding area is too small, resulting in the self-learning result of the finishing mill model being opposite to the expected direction, thereby improving rolling stability.

[0082] Example 2

[0083] Based on the same inventive concept, embodiments of the present invention also provide a self-learning correction device for a finishing mill model, such as... Figure 2 As shown, it includes:

[0084] The first judgment module 201 is used to determine whether the actual rolling force of the finishing mill is effective;

[0085] The acquisition module 202 is used to acquire, if not, the rolling force setting value, the rolling force measurement value, and the rolling force recalculation value of the finishing mill unit;

[0086] The second judgment module 203 is used to determine whether the rolling force setting value, the rolling force measurement value, and the rolling force recalculation value meet the preset conditions;

[0087] The update module 204 is used to update the finishing mill model of the finishing mill unit through self-learning if the condition is met.

[0088] In one optional implementation, the first determination module 201 is used to: obtain the actual maximum tension and the stand reference tension of the finishing mill;

[0089] Determine whether the actual maximum tension is greater than the frame reference tension.

[0090] In one optional implementation, the frame reference tension is specifically the product of a set tension and a preset coefficient.

[0091] In one optional implementation, the second judgment module 203 is used to: determine whether the rolling force setting value, the rolling force measurement value, and the rolling force recalculation value increase or decrease sequentially.

[0092] In one alternative implementation, the update module 204 is used to:

[0093] The recalculated value of the rolling force is then corrected;

[0094] The finishing mill model is updated through self-learning based on the corrected recalculated rolling force value.

[0095] In one alternative implementation, the update module 204 is used to:

[0096] The corrected recalculated rolling force value is applied to the self-learning of rolling force in the finishing mill model;

[0097] Obtain the actual value and calculated value of deformation resistance;

[0098] Determine whether the actual value of the deformation resistance is equal to the calculated value of the deformation resistance;

[0099] If not, the deformation resistance self-learning update will not be performed.

[0100] In one alternative implementation, the update module 204 is used to:

[0101] The corrected recalculated rolling force value is applied to the self-learning of rolling force in the finishing mill model;

[0102] Obtain the thickness deviation at the finish rolling exit;

[0103] Determine whether the thickness deviation at the finishing mill exit is 0;

[0104] If not, then roll gap self-learning update will not be performed.
