The leader in industrial automation.

With its standardized components and modular structure, the SIMATIC-based process control system is the fully scalable backbone, while accommodating the full range of specific rolling mill requirements. Features include unified functional blocks in the software landscape to minimize familiarization and maintenance time, integrated system information data for efficient maintenance and quality assurance, an integrated production monitoring system that is fully scalable for all production processes, and optimum support of operating personnel with an easy-to-understand human-machine interface.

Dynamic process optimization for Hot Mill Reheat Furnaces

In order to master production processes, we must first fully understand and map them in physical-metallurgical models. Thanks to ongoing cooperation with our customers and collaboration with universities and metallurgical research institutions, we now have detailed models for the entire rolling process. These provide a solid basis for our leading automation solutions.

• SIROLL Furnace Optimization

SIROLL MSM – monitors the steel microstructure from furnace to cooling

The SIROLL MSM microstructure monitor calculates the material properties – such as yield point or tensile strength – that are required for quality certification. This is done online during the production process, minimizing expensive laboratory measurements, and significantly shortening the release time for the product.
