    Abstract: Coil has been produced by coiling of a strip. The coil has two end faces and a lateral surface, and also a coil eye having an eye axis. The binding bands have a binding band width. Initially, while a first subregion of the lateral surface of the coil, as seen in the direction of the eye axis, is resting on a first rest, those binding bands which, as seen in the direction of the eye axis, surround the coil completely outside the first subregion are removed. Then, while a second subregion of the coil, as seen in the direction of the eye axis, is resting on the first rest or a second rest, those binding bands which were not removed are removed. The first and the second subregion, as seen in the direction of the eye axis, are spaced apart from one another at least by the binding band width.

    Abstract: A cooling section (2) is situated in a rolling line or upstream or downstream of the rolling line. A hot metal rolled material (1) is cooled in the cooling section. A control device (13) of the cooling section (2) dynamically determines setpoint actuation states (S1*) for control valves (10) situated in supply lines (8) and actuates the control valves (10) accordingly. Main flows (F1) of a liquid, water-based coolant (7) are supplied to application devices (6) of the cooling section (2) via the supply lines (8) in accordance with the actuation. The supply lines (8) conduct the main flows (F1) to buffer regions (12) of the application devices (6). Proceeding from there, cooling flows (F) of the coolant (7) are applied to the hot rolled material (1). The control device (13) also dynamically determines setpoint actuation states (S2*) for active devices (16) and actuates the active devices (16) accordingly. The active devices (16) conduct additional flows (F2) of a further medium (18) to the buffer regions (12) via further supply lines (17) in accordance with the actuation. The cooling flows (F) depend on both the main flows (F1) and the additional flows (F2). The additional flows (F2) are positive or negative depending on the actuation state (S2*) of the active devices (16). The control device (13) adjusts the additional flows (F2) by correspondingly actuating the active devices (16) such that the cooling flows (F) are as identical as possible to setpoint flows (F*) of the coolant (7) at all times.

    Abstract: A control device of the rolling mill line controls actuators of a downstream and an upstream roll stand. The control device determines control variables for the actuators of the upstream roll stand while taking into consideration a flatness change to be carried out and additionally taking into consideration a contour change to be carried out and controls the actuators of the upstream roll stand accordingly. The control device determines control variables for the actuators of the downstream roll stand while taking into consideration the contour change to be performed but without taking into consideration the flatness change to be performed and controls the actuators of the downstream roll stand accordingly. The control device outputs the control variables to the actuators of the downstream roll stand with a delay of a transport time, relative to the corresponding control variables for the actuators of the upstream roll stand.

    Abstract: Hot rolling stock (1) made of metal which is rolled in at least one roll stand (2) and then cooled in a cooling section (5) arranged downstream of the at least one roll stand (2). Sound generated by means of a sound generator arrangement (8) is coupled into the rolling stock (1) by a coupling device (1) so that a standing sound wave is formed at least in the region of the rolling stock (1) which is located in the vicinity of the coupling device (10).

    Abstract: A pinch roll delivers a respective rolled product. A control device opens the pinch roll at a respective trigger time and at a respective transport speed of the respective rolled product. The control device determines the respective trigger time and/or the respective transport speed using a model that depends on a coefficient of friction. After opening the pinch roll, a measuring device detects iteratively a position or a derivation in time of the position of the respective rolled product. The detected positions or the detected derivations in time of the position are provided to the control device. The control device in dependency on the positions or the derivations in time of the position updates the coefficient of friction and uses the updated coefficient of friction for determining the respective trigger time and/or the respective transport speed for the next rolled product delivered by the pinch roll.

    Abstract: A hydraulic cylinder unit (1) having a hydraulic cylinder (2), a piston (3) which can be moved in the hydraulic cylinder (2), and a servo valve (7). The piston (3) separates working volumes (5A, 5B) of the hydraulic cylinder unit (1) from one another. The servo valve (7) is connected to a hydraulic pump (8), a tank (9), and the working volumes (5A, 5B). The servo valve (7) is supplied with a pump pressure (pP) via the hydraulic pump (8). The tank (9) has a tank pressure (pT). The servo valve (7) is adjusted to a defined valve position (y). A piston position (z) of the piston (3) in the hydraulic cylinder (2) and working pressures (pA, pB) which are applied to the working volumes (5A, 5B) are detected. An analysis device (12) ascertains a leakage coefficient (ω) of the hydraulic cylinder unit (1) using the piston position (z), the working pressures (pA,pB), the valve position (y), the pump pressure (pP), and a value which represents the tank pressure (pT) in connection with time-invariant parameters of the hydraulic cylinder unit (1).
