Research on Dynamic Modelling, Characteristics and Vibration Reduction Application of Hot Rolling Mills Considering the Rolling Process by Zhiwen Lu, Duolong Zhou, Danfeng Yu, Han Xiao

“…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. …”
