Application of automatic and user friendly diagnosis and monitoring systems in the steel industry

摘要

Target is the use of monitoring systems in a simple and secure way under heavy industrial surroundings in steel industry for enhancing production rate and quality and for reducing unpredictable down time simultaneously. The basic version of automatic failure prognosis is a simple traffic light and an automatic information of process control system and personal staff about predicted and actual damages and their intensity. The user of these partially distributed monitoring systems should receive short and handsome individual information about the condition of the observed process and production equipment. The realisation of these ideas is demonstrated on several examples with automatic control and prognosis in the steel industry: the automatic chatter control, chatter and drive monitoring of a 5 stand cold rolling mill, the outbreak of trimming shears at slitting lines and side cut shears, the bearing failure prognosis at a heavy reversal mill without sensors on bearings, and a distributed data acquisition at hot dip galvanising line for different user groups.
