Modernization of control system, units and mechanisms of recrystallization annealing plant No.1.
The specialists of our enterprise have completed implementation of the project «Modernization of control system, units and mechanisms of recrystallization annealing plant No.1 for reaching a target maturity level» for cold-rolling shop of OOO VIZ-Steel (Limited Liability Company).
The project goal was to minimize a human influence on metal treatment process by ensuring an automated operation of units, actuating mechanisms and auxiliary systems according to prescribed metal processing conditions throughout the entire cycle of coil processing.
In the course of implementing the modernization project the following systems, units and mechanisms were upgraded:
- • chemical cellar process control system;
- • brush washing machine (BWM);
- • strip drying after BWM control system;
- • strip centering system;
- • scrubber;
- • furnace atmosphere monitoring and control system;
- • furnace heating system.
Data exchange with induction heating system has been established. Data reception from PSI regarding alkalinity of degreasing solution and residual carbon indicators has been organized too.
The provisional results of a two-month operation already demonstrate a move in the right direction as regards stabilization of processing conditions and final metal quality.
