description The impact of rolling mill vibration extends beyond product quality to equipment health, making vibration control crucial. This study addresses the issue of frequent abnormal vibration in hot strip finishing mills by employing a combination of theory, simulation, and experimentation to analyze the dynamic behavior of the mill and apply findings to on-site vibration suppression. Initially, a torsional-vertical-horizontal coupled dynamic model for the rolling mill has been developed, taking into account the rolling process. The accuracy of this model is established through both finite element simulations and actual experiments. Subsequently, the vibration characteristics of the rolling mill system are investigated under typical process parameters utilizing the established dynamic model. The results reveal that the vibration amplitude notably escalates with the increase of rolling reduction rate and rolling speed, and the difference in front and rear tension has little impact on the mill’s vibration. Furthermore, an increase in the temperature of the rolled piece reduces the overall vibration amplitude, and harder material results in greater overall mill vibration. Lastly, abnormal vibration in the F2 finishing mill at a hot rolling plant is effectively mitigated by reducing rolling reduction rate, which further validates the correctness of the findings.
