Abstract:
A process includes flexible rolling of a strip made of a metallic material, wherein a thickness profile with different sheet thicknesses along the length of the strip is produced such that successive regions of the flexibly rolled strip each correspond to a target thickness profile of a sheet metal blank to be cut out of same; determining a measured thickness profile of a plurality of successive regions of the strip; calculating a target position in the strip for a sheet metal blank to be cut out of the strip depending on the generated measured thickness profile of at least two successive regions of the strip; cutting the flexibly rolled strip by at least one cutting device along the target position for producing the sheet meal blank. A plant is further provided for producing a sheet metal blank.

Claim (Index 20):
The apparatus of  claim 16 ,\n wherein several cutting devices are provided that are at least one of: controllable by the electronic control unit such that several sheet metal blanks can be cut simultaneously out of the strip, and controllable by the electronic control unit so as to jointly cut a sheet metal blank out of the strip.
