Abstract

Customer requirements are becoming ever more demanding in terms not only of product quality but also operational flexibility. The Dynamic Shape Roll (DSR®) is the most capable mill actuator currently available to meet these challenges. Recent experience has clearly demonstrated the benefits of the DSR®. Exceptional capability in terms of head end flatness performance and overall dynamic performance can be demonstrated. The ability to handle product width changes is unrivalled by any other actuator. The DSR® can easily be operated by correctly trained operators and mill technicians with a high degree of reliability.
