[0015] Specifically, after the slab is loaded into the furnace, it is heated to 1133° C. according to the preset heating process. After the slab is taken out of the furnace, it is rolled according to the preset rolling process, and the rolling is completed when the thickness of the steel plate reaches 50 mm and the final rolling temperature reaches 820° C.

[0016] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the slab steel grade is A40-T, the slab specifications are 260*2770*3791mm, and the rolled steel grade is EH36.

[0017] Step S102: setting cooling parameters of the slab, controlling the steel plate to enter the cooling zone for cooling, and completing cooling after reaching a preset red-return temperature; Among them, the cooling parameters include cooling manifold flow rate, and several groups of cooling manifolds in the cooling zone are arranged in sequence along the moving direction of the steel plate, and the flow rate of the cooling manifold located in the front half of the cooling zone is greater than the flow rate of the cooling manifold located in the rear half of the cooling zone.

[0018] Specifically, in this embodiment, thirteen groups of cooling headers are provided in the cooling zone, numbered 1 to 13. Along the moving direction of the slab, groups 1 to 7 of cooling headers are located in the front half of the cooling zone, and groups 8 to 13 of cooling headers are located in the back half of the cooling zone. The cooling parameters are set as follows: the flow rate of groups 1 to 7 of cooling headers is 200m 3 / h, the flow rate of 8~13 cooling headers is set to 120m 3 / h.
