Another method was recently proposed by Kokubo, et al [10] and is illustrated schematically in Fig. 16.12. When the axes of both edging rolls are perpendicular to the advancing direction of the slab, the slab tends to ascend on one side becoming tilted at the angle fJ. To prevent this ascension, the edging roll at this side is tilted at the angle 8 toward the same direction as the advancing direction of the slab. For a reversing pass, the edging roll is tilted at the angle 8 0 . This action creates a component f of the roll tangential force f 0 (Fig. 16.12a) that pushes the slab down against the table rolls as shown in Fig. 16.12b.
