Abstract
A method for applying a lubricant while rolling metallic rolled stock, e.g., a rolled strip guided through a roll gap between two work rolls, may include the following steps: producing a mixture of lubricant and a carrier gas in an atomization device; supplying the mixture to individual spray nozzles of an arrangement of spray nozzles, in order to produce a continuous overall spray jet in the direction of the width of the rolled strip; and applying the mixture by means of the overall spray jet to the surface of at least one of the work rolls and/or to the surface of the rolled strip.
