The transformation model and the model-predictive coolingsection
control system not only have decisive advantages
when it comes to the production of multiphase steels; the
quality of other materials such as highly carbonized steels,
tool steels, transformer sheeting and many other materials is
also improved.
Especially for older plants with many restrictions and
limitations, the new cooling-section automation system allows
for flexible manufacture of modern steel grades. Although the
implementation of the micro structure target cooling system
alone may result already in the required flexibility and quality,
additionally by small mechanical modifications a plant may
be brought to its peak-performance being ready for the
challenges in future.
