TECHNOLOGIES AND AUTOMATIC CONTROL SYSTEMS FOR
THE PROCESSES OF ROLLING AND HARDWARE PRODUCTION
INFORMATION AND COMPUTATION SYSTEM "THE FURNACEMAN ADVISER"
The system's purpose is to work out recommendations regarding the modes of the ingots heating in the soaking pits of the roughing plants of metallurgical works under the conditions of the rolling mill smooth operation, as well as during the forced idle runs of equipment, with a view to increasing the operating efficiency of the soaking pits division.
The system's functions are:
- to ensure communication between the stripping department of the steelmaking shops and the soaking pits division of the rolling shops.
- to measure the temperature of the metal surface automatically, before loading it into the soaking pit, depending on the ingot type and its handling time.
- to calculate the metal heating modes, depending on the steel grade, the ingot type and the ingot's handling time.
- to calculate the metal heating modes in case of delays of the ingots discharge and to work out recommendations regarding the realization of the modes.
- to save the data about the metal heating to the hard disk for further analysis.
Hardware:
- The chief furnaceman and the loaderman industrial workstation with the IDE flesh-Winchester in the IPC610 case produced by "ADVANTECH".
- The foreman's office computer based on the Intel Celeron 633 PPGA processor.
- Uninterrupted power supplies BK500MI Back-UPS (500VA)
- Network boards PCI: RTL 8019
- Ink-jet printer "HP DESKJET 640C"
Software: software environment written in "C" language, functioning in the QNX real-time system.
The system is introduced at the breakdown plant of the OJSC "Enakievo Metallurgical Works" (Ukraine, Enakievo).
The information and computation system "The furnaceman adviser" can work off-line as well as together with the functioning automatic systems "Steel - rolled stock", and can be efficiently used in the soaking pits divisions of the rolling shops of metallurgical works.
