SUMMARY:Modernization of contour and flatness optimizer to improve strip quality and reduce post-processing
DESCRIPTION:By upgrading individual software components, steelmakers can continuously modernise their plants and achieve more sustainable quality production. An example of this is thyssenkrupp's recent upgrade of an advanced profile, flatness and contour control system into an existing third-party automation system.  The new configuration consists of a level 2 set-up system and a level 1 real-time controller. In addition to fundamental quality improvements, the focus is on flatness guarantees, which are increasingly in demand from end customers. This article describes the virtualised system, the analysis tools and the digital twin in detail. Results are also shared, including the improvements to strip quality and the reduction in the number of further downstream processing steps required to achieve the desired product quality.
