DEVELOPMENT OF ROBOTIZED SOLUTIONS AT KEY POINTS IN THE PRODUCTION PROCESS

IC4-070050-2021-6

In order to improve the productivity of this stage of the process, the development of a system capable of automatically taking samples from the ladle furnace is planned. This will also improve the reliability and accuracy of the sampling process by avoiding possible errors due to human intervention. Specifically, a robot will be developed and implemented for the automatic sampling of molten steel to determine the temperature and chemical composition in the ladle furnace. This robot will be fully integrated with the control systems of the plant, thanks to which a total optimization of the sample measurement times will be achieved.
