Objective
AUTOCHECK provides advanced methods and tools for Performance Assessment of steel plants in terms of integrated control monitoring and supervision of main components of the automation system.
AUTOCHECK enables operators, process control and maintenance engineers to continuously monitor and maintain their plant at peak performance and reliability by automatic analysing the performance of set-up systems and of key (basic and technological) control systems. For this, the systems are compared to optimal benchmarks and the causes of deviations are diagnosed.
The objective is to identify poorly performing automation systems, and then to retune, upgrade them or redesign their control structures.
The techniques and procedures developed in this project will be applied to ACERALIA's hot strip mill, to TERNI's hot strip mill, and to EKO's galvanising line. Once applied, these plants will show product quality, reliability and productivity improvements as well as material saving.
