Better strip from the mill you already have.
I help rolling plants and mill builders improve strip profile, flatness, gauge and yield, drawing on more than 25 years in the aluminium industry and physics-based models of what the mill is actually doing.
Consulting
Profile, flatness, gauge and surface problems on hot and cold mills, solved on site or remotely with your mill data.
ServicesTraining
Courses on the rolling process, strip profile and flatness control, delivered on site, remotely or as open online courses with TSC.
CoursesSimulation
Interactive models of roll stack deflection, bending and shifting, used to explain and test control strategies before they reach the mill.
Try the modelsMill floor experience, checked against the physics.
Most of my career was spent inside a rolling plant: commissioning, tuning control loops, chasing defects and running improvement projects. I combine that with first-principles models of roll deflection, Hertzian flattening and the roll bite, so recommendations are explained, not just asserted.
A typical engagement starts with your data and a short visit or call, then a written diagnosis, a set of practical changes, and support while your team puts them into practice.
