Claim 14:
15. Method for rolling a rolling stock, the method comprising:
rolling the stock through at least one pair of rolls;
applying a tensile stress in a rolling direction to the rolling stock by at least a downstream linear drive arranged downstream of the at least one pair of rolls in the rolling direction in cooperation with the at least one pair of rolls and/or an upstream linear drive arranged upstream of the at least one pair of rolls in the rolling direction;
detecting the tensile stress in the rolling direction exerted on the rolling stock by the downstream linear drive and/or the upstream linear drive;
based at least in part on the detected tensile stress in the rolling direction, controlling the tensile stress exerted on the rolling stock to either (1) vary the tensile stress in the rolling direction applied to the rolling stock and/or (2) to keep the tensile stress constant behind a roll gap.
