It is only decisive that the target wedge is achieved in the final product, ie in the flat rolling stock after finish rolling. On the other hand, the present invention is based on the finding that in the event that the thickness wedge deviates from the target wedge, this deviation for the next, not yet rolled flat rolling stock can be counteracted by appropriate adjustment of the roll stand during rough rolling. In this case, no elaborate modeling of the rolling process is required. It is sufficient if the deviation of the thickness wedge from the target wedge tends to be counteracted.
