This contribution is concerned with the nonlinear control of a temper rolling mill based on the exact input/output linearization method. The considered subsystem of the temper rolling plant consists of a four-high mill stand with a hydraulic adjustment system, and bridle rolls in the entry and the exit section. The demand on the temper rolling process is to establish a certain elongation of the steel strip under the action of the roll force and certain predefinded backward and forward strip tension in order to achieve the desired material characterized by the fact that the torques of the bridle rolls are intended as control inputs for the elongation and master speed control, whereas the hydraulic adjustment system and the main mill drive are used to take effect on the strip tensions. After a brief review of the mathematical model of the mill we will focus on the multi-input nonlinear tension control.
