MetalsMaster

Auto Gauge Control

Honeywell has combined high accuracy entry and exit thickness measurements, Automatic Gauge Control (AGC), Hydraulic Gap Control (HGC) and other enhanced features.

Overview
Overview 
Honeywell has combined high accuracy entry and exit thickness measurements, Automatic Gauge Control (AGC), Hydraulic Gap Control (HGC) and other enhanced features such as roll eccentricity compensation, Mass Flow Control into a single integrated system to meet the needs of most demanding sheet and foil rolling operations. 
High-performance controller with real-time operating system provide cycle times as fast as 10 ms.  
AGC Supports: 
  • Tension/Speed or Load/Gap Control 
  • Hydraulic Gap Control (HGC) for precise closed-loop roll positioning 
  • Roll Eccentricity Control (REC) 
  • Mass Flow Control 
  • Coil Diameter Compensation 
What Problems Does It Solve? 
MetalsMaster manages the complex dynamics in a rolling mill to achieve the highest possible mill speeds consistent with high gauge quality and safe mill operation.
Speed Optimization dramatically increase the average mill speed.
Coordinating various AGC modes while mid-ranging the primary AGC actuator improves mill performance.
Load Optimization ensures maximum control range for tension and speed actuators, and when used in conjunction with speed optimization can indirectly produce speed increases.
