Objective SHAPEHPM provides new operating strategies, ski-end control and optimised set-up adaptation for ski & control for camber/thickness profile to reduce shape defects and yield losses.The innovative approach encompasses a new topo-metrical measurement system TopPlan to collect data on plan view shape and ski, advanced FE modelling and rules to predict shape defects, and the development and use of advanced online models for in-bar ski control. To compensate the deficits of conventional models and control methods, Iterative Learning Control will be applied as a new idea for a pass to pass set-up adaptation of in-bar ski-control and of camber control that takes into account cross thickness profile.The concept will be optimised by runs of a real time HPM-simulator built up by online-models to predict shape and ski. The benefit could be yield saving in the plate mills of the order of 1%.
