Abstract

A method and an arrangement for rolling strip with axially displaceable rolls, particularly wear-resistant rolls. Rolls with increased diameter end portions are used. The rolls are axially displaced relative to each other in such a way that the rolled strip is in contact over the width thereof with the portions of the rolls having the smaller diameter. With increasing temperature of the rolls and, thus, thermal cambering of the rolls, the rolls are displaced in opposite direction relative to each other until areas of the increased diameter end portions are moved over edge areas of the rolled strip.
