Fuzzy Tuning PID Control of the Rolling Mill Main Drive System

Abstract

The main drive system using for four-high mill is usually a double closed loop DC motor speed regulating system. Generally, the speed controller and current controller are PID controllers, and the parameters of controllers are determined by the engineering design method. Once disturbance occur, the control effects are often just passable. In this paper, fuzzy logic is used to set the parameters of the speed PID controller, so as to improve the disturbance rejection ability. Simulation results show that the fuzzy tuning PID controller can give better control effect than the regular control.
