Transients in electromechanical systems need to be modeled adequately if the existing electric drive control algorithms are to be improved, or new ones are to be developed. This fully applies to the electric drives of roll-ing mill stands. When studying such drives, one often needs to find a tradeoff between the complexity of Park-Gorev equation-based mathematical description of processes in variable frequency drives, and the capabilities of simpler models that adequately describe the processes relevant for each specific case. The latter include the known dual-mass model of the electromechanical system of a rolling mill stand featuring a flexible shaft and gaps in transmissions. Research presented herein covers the parameters of this model, which need to be ob-tained experimentally. The most accurate way to find the model parameters is to derive them from the oscillo-grams sampled on the object when running in typical transient. This particular paper addresses the electrome-chanical system of the horizontal stand in Plate Mill 5000 deployed at Magnitogorsk Iron and Steel Works (MMK PJSC). The paper substantiates the methodology behind parametrizing the system and shows how to cal-culate the moments of inertia of rotating masses from oscillograms of unloaded drive acceleration. To showcase the method, the paper presents finding the stiffness factor of an elastic coupling from the transients recorded when halting the electric drive. Focus is made on finding the time constants of the internal torque control cir-cuit as approximated by first-order or second-order filters. By comparing the simulation output against the os-cillograms sampled on the mill itself, the model was proven to adequately compute the parameters of the object. The paper concludes with recommendations on how the developed methods could be used to find the parame-ters of a dual-mass system when modeling the electric drives in rolling mills. The conclusions outline possible further research.

Development of control system based on digital twins of physical processes is a promising area of research in the rolling industry. Closed-loop control systems are developed to control the coordinates of two-mass electromechanical systems in order to limit the dynamic loads on the equipment of main rolling lines. These control systems are based on observers (digital shadows) that indirectly detect (reconstruct) the roll speed and the elastic torque of the shaft (spindle) in real time. Notably, observers are required to work fast in order to reconstruct transients attributable to shock (impact) loads. Literature review shows that the known observers, which use complex algorithms to compute coordinates, do not respond fast enough. The paper analyzes the kinematic diagram of Mill 5000, a plate rolling mill. It presents oscillograms that prove that the elastic torque does oscillate as the rolls grip the strip dynamically. The authors hereof have developed an observer that reconstructs the coordinates of the uncontrolled mass (the shaft) and the spindle torque from the parameters of the controlled mass, namely the torque and speed of the motor. The paper further rationalizes an approach that consists of simulating the processes on a model to further directly configure them on the object. The authors analyze the transients of the reconstructed two-mass system coordinates, which are associated with the rolls gripping the strip. The paper compares data against oscillograms recorded on the mill itself. The accuracy is satisfactory. The proposed observer has been used to developed a three-loop automatic speed control system for the uncontrolled mass. Controller configurations are substantiated. The paper shows coordinates obtained by simulation modeling as functions of time. It further presents experiments run on Mill 5000; the conclusions are that the amplitude and oscillations of the elastic torque drop significantly. The paper concludes with recommendations on industrial adoption of the observer and the novel electric drive coordinate control system. Study presented herein substantiates and implements a concept of developing algorithms that solve specific problems and are readily implementable on the existing equipment without need for additional computing devices. The contribution of the paper consists of stating and solving the problem of developing and testing an automatic elastic torque control system for the shaft of a heavy-duty rolling mill. This system has been implemented in the form of algorithms that run in the software of the existing industrial controllers (PLCs). It is simple and performs well. It does not need additional sensors or computers to be implemented, nor does it rely on complex computational algorithms. Such algorithms are based on computational tables that require a priori data on numerous process parameters. In our literature review, we have not come across any industrial implementation of such algorithms on hot-rolling mills.

This paper considers issues related to increasing energy efficiency in electric drives of pilger rolling mills, presenting kinematics of such mills, provides justification for the general load chart, presents the detailed review of reference materials on technical energy saving solutions, and suggests a math model of an electric drive with a field regulated reluctance machine. The paper suggests key methods of saving energy in electric drives of pilger mills, namely: kinematic scheme improvement; main energy drainers and ways of energy loss reduction in electric drives with direct- and alternate-current motors, energy-saving electric drive control profiles. The article compares energy-saving resources in electric drives with various-type motors (direct-current motors, synchronous motors, and field regulated reluctance machine), clarifies the scheme of energy-saving resource implementation, provides the qualitative evaluation of electric drive control method efficiency. The accent is made on high energy efficiency of the proportionate control of armature and excitation circuits and across the range of torque in electric drives of abruptly-variable-load mills. The highest economic effect is reached in the electric drive with a field regulated reluctance machine – by means of implementing the energy-efficient electromechanical converter and applying energy-saving control profiles.

The paper deals with the problems of vibration damping and limiting dynamic loads in the electromechanical system of a belt conveyor by means of an adjustable electric drive. A conveying unit is represented as a three-mass ring system, which corresponds to a conveying unit with cinematically closed tape. The development of the structure of the control system for electric drives of belt conveyors with limited dynamic loads in elastic elements will reduce the dynamic loads on the belt and therefore the wear of the belts. Conditions of damping of oscillations in electromechanical system of belt conveyors are defined.
