Application Scenarios

• Optimization of steelmaking for BOF/EAF (electric arc furnace)

  By combining the ratio of molten iron and scrap steel, optimize the smelting plan and improve the BOF/EAF operation efficiency. Predict smelting time, reduce waiting time, and improve equipment utilization.

• Optimization of scheduling for refining furnaces (LF/RH, etc.)

  Automatically align with steel grades and alloy requirements, and minimize refining cycle time.
  Optimize the molten steel flow path and reduce bottlenecks in combination with the order demand.

• Continuous casting production scheduling

  combining the status of the molten steel and the load of the continuous casting machine.
  Improve the operating rate of continuous casting machines, reduce the retention time of molten steel, and minimize quality defects.

• Molten steel flow and energy consumption management

  Optimize the transportation of molten iron and the turnover path of steel ladles, reduce the waiting time of steel ladles, and improve turnover efficiency.
  By combining energy consumption models, optimize the scheduling of energy sources such as gas, electricity, and oxygen to reduce production costs.

Benefits

A certain project reduced the total transfer time for ladles by 4 minutes, generating annual savings of USD 416,666.67.
