Testing a Steel Plant before it is built

In the steel industry, new plants are becoming increasingly automated and complex. Controllab supplies simulators for the steel industry. These simulators are used to test plant operation and automation. They help the customer to find and solve problems before the plant is actually built.

ADVANTAGES

Our training simulators are based on physics and accurate 3D CAD. They can be coupled to PLCs to test the plant automation.

• Insight: Detect obstacles, check what a crane operator can see, play scenarios.
  Automation: Test new algorithms and automation in advance.
  Test: Test equipment based on CAD files and make changes until it fits.

BENEFITS

Using a simulator to test a plant will:

• Improve quality: Optimize safety and material handling.
• Increase efficiency: Minimize delays and find optimum machine operation.
• Save costs: Reduce late stage design changes and associated time delays.

GET IN TOUCH

Get in touch with Paul Weustink. He is responsible for the development of our steel plant simulators. He can tell you how our simulators have helped to:

• detect improper equipment early in the design process
• test and implement complex automation
• test a new generation of electric arc furnaces
