PLATING WEIGHT CONTROL DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD

Abstract:

An apparatus for controlling coating weight of a steel sheet by using an air knife includes: an air knife condition derivation unit configured to derive a first air knife gap and a final air knife pressure for target coating weight, and derive a second air knife gap for achieving the target coating weight at a current air knife pressure; and an air knife pressure response compensation unit configured to determine a final air knife gap according to a gap compensation amount that is a difference between the second air knife gap and the first air knife gap and a gap compensation ratio based on an air knife pressure variation amount for a control period, in which the control period is a period for updating an air knife condition for the target coating weight.
