The present research seeks to design a system for the automatic adjustment of the thickness of hot rolled billets, whose measurement tends to increase due to the gradual wear of the rolling rolls. Currently, in the Peruvian steel industry this adjustment process is carried out manually and requires the extraction of a specimen from the production line to verify its thickness. This action involves an unavoidable production pause, and its initial handling poses a risk of severe burns to the operators. This is why a system that estimates and adjusts the thickness of the billets continuously is needed. To do this, it is proposed to fuse two thickness estimates using the Kalman filter, the first by direct measurement using level sensors and the second based on the current consumption model of the motor that moves the rollers, which decreases as the rollers wear out. With this information, an algorithm is designed that automatically modifies the setpoint of the actuator responsible for adjusting the distance between the rollers. To validate it, the algorithm is simulated considering typical conditions of an industrial rolling system, which involves the presence of noise in the sensing carried out to obtain the estimates. Thus, the performance of several filters is tested, with the rectangular window moving average filter being the one that provides the filtering with the lowest mean square error. Finally, a reduced-scale prototype is manufactured to validate the concept of the control and correction system, considering only the kinematic synthesis of the system. Based on the tests carried out, the algorithm corrects the billet thickness when it exceeds an error threshold of 5mm until it decreases to less than 1mm. The simulation results and the implementation of the prototype demonstrate that the proposal is viable from the point of view of the system kinematics.
