Casting and rolling mill, in particular thin slab casting and rolling mill

摘要

The invention relates to a method for operating a continuous casting installation, especially a thin slab continuous casting installation, using a computing unit. A plurality of slabs (29) which belong to different production orders (30, 31) are produced within sequences (26, 27) on the continuous casting installation. The computing unit determines the sequence of the slabs (29) belonging to the production orders (30, 31) within the sequences (26, 27) by using a genetic algorithm. The continuous casting installation is controlled by the computing unit according to the determined sequence.
