SUMMARY:Smart long rolling - digital solutions
DESCRIPTION:"Primetals Technologies Long Rolling is at the forefront of applying the latest smart digital solutions in the industry. Their vision systems, developed over several years, provide an extremely strong, smart digital portfolio with a focus on improving safety, reliability and maintenance, while increasing production, yield and quality. In addition, these systems provide previously unattainable insights into the rolling process.
 
Prevention is far more economical than problem fixing. Primetals Technologies promotes a proactive, predictive, and preventive maintenance approach for all our customers. Vibration analysis allows accurate prediction for mill maintenance; enabling improved downtime scheduling. Data is collected both periodically and continuously by our proprietary condition monitoring and analysis systems. Long-term partnerships have been developed with our customers, using our vast predictive service knowledge and over a century of long-rolling experience. 
 
Sub-optimal roll cooling can lead to premature roll wear, reduced yield, and catastrophic failure.  Primetals Technologies has developed a new roll cooling system with a quick-change, additive manufactured cartridge, which along with sensors, helps to ensure rolls are receiving consistent, optimized cooling.
 
With increasing focus on safety, operators are restricted from approaching the mill to perform manual checks on section size, equipment status or adjust settings. A new guide series provides continuous feedback on section size, equipment condition and allows remote adjustments. In addition, an alternative section measurement system has recently been brought to market. The main focus of this portable device is again to keep operators away from the mill during production, while providing accurate, objective measurements. Other recent developments include crop length optimization, Laying Head/Stelmor vision control system, and a roll-change robot. The paper gives practical examples how the implementation of smart digital solutions in long rolling leads to an improved plant performance, optimized maintenance strategy and safer operation."
