COURSE OVERVIEW

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Steel Manufacturing Process. It covers the product and process characteristics, quality management and hot strip quality parameters; measuring quality parameters in the rolling mill; applying statistical methods for measurement evaluation and data storage through quality control; scheduling rolling programs and rolling campaigns; the defect catalogue to be covered with quality management; the coil box operations, maintenance and automation; and the thickness profile, strip contour and flatness. 

During this interactive course, participants will learn the mechanical design, controller design and profile control flatness control (PCFC); the thermal crown, roll wear, load distribution and preset and adaption algorithm; the furnaces operation, maintenance and automation; the roughing mill and edger operations, secondary descaler and finishing mill; the pass scheduling, maintenance and automation; the down coiler operation, maintenance and automation; the measurement of coil face profile and multivariable coiling control; the control system and media systems; and operating, maintaining and automating information on hydraulic, pneumatic and lubrication systems.
