• Calculation of the position of the rolls=> with the static Automatic Gage Control (AGC) before the rolling
• Roll gap control (loop control)=> with the dynamic Automatic Gage Control (AGC) during the rolling( 1 sec cycle rate )
• Position control of the hydraulic cylinders (very fast loop control) in both mode, to keep the setted cylinder position of the rolls
