This paper deals with a modified repetitive control method for compensating automatic gauge control (AGC) to reduce the effect of skid mark which directly influence the quality of products in plate mill process. Since the skid mark on the plate have thermal difference, it makes a different stretching rate and deflection of thickness. Firstly, the AGC system and the plate mill process are described by considering function in each control levels. The skid mark of the plate in practical control fields is shown. Also, its frequency variation is given by on-line FFT analysis method. Secondly, a key idea of the modified repetitive control method with time varying periodic disturbance is presented, and it is also compared with standard repetitive control method. Lastly, we show that the variation of thickness is attenuated about 35persentage in comparison with standard repetitive control method.
