SUMMARY:Through-process quality control (TPQC): Latest developments, benefits for steel producers and success stories
DESCRIPTION:"Continuous product improvement based on steel producers requirements is an essential part of the TPQC success story. But how can TPQC users take advantage of these?
 
This paper describes the latest developments in the area of TPQC.
Among the developments are improvements of the Statistical Process Control (SPC) functionality, now supporting an electronic logbook of changes and measures applied to the process, and digital guidance to select the right measures when SPC alarms occur.
Other new features comprise extended support for data recording, visualization and evaluation for the liquid steel production and visualization of data for entire campaigns such as tundish sequences. Integration of prescriptive AI models make it possible to online react to process deviations to adapt the next process in order to reach the required product quality targets.

TPQC is now available as subscription license to ensure that the system is always at the latest state and steel producers can benefit from the new features of the system and become a lifecycle partner of Primetals Technologies.

The paper further explains success stories of projects in which  TPQC is interacting with Primetals Technologies' production management system (PMS) and condition monitoring system (ALEX) to maximize the benefits and to make a big step towards the Digital Unity vision of Primetals Technologies.
ALEX can provide valuable information about the condition of the production facilities to TPQC via a plug & play interface and such enabling TPQC to even more precisely decide on necessary measures to ensure that the products will meet the required quality. The interaction with the PMS ensures that the product transport and necessary further production steps can automatically be controlled based on on-line quality decisions and remedial measures proposed by TPQC."
