Modeling and Supervisory Control (Level 2 Automation)
The higher level automation functions include production data interface to the customers plant coordination systems, piece tracking, actuator preset, data logging and quality information management.
Applications typically consist of a Single or Dual Server configuration. Software is designed, configured and tested to the requirements of the customer.
Re-use software libraries are maintained for each process area to provide tested and proven solutions with reduced re-engineering costs.
Mathematical Models
Mathematical models based on physical models of the material, the roll deflection and the stack deflection.
Converteam provides models for hot rolling, cold rolling, and processing of steel and aluminium, and is an industry leader in the development and application of on-line set-up systems.
Accurate models allow the Supervisory system to optimise the reduction process to reduce production times and increase product quality.
To optimise the performances under all conditions, an adaptive learning function allows the basic models to be adjusted automatically for variations of material and mill behaviour.
