Plate shape automatic control system and solution - based on VLA system architecture
The excellent plate shape automatic control (AFC) system, as an integral part of modern cold rolling mills, not only improves product quality, but also increases mill productivity.
The plate-shaped automatic control solution tailored for the rolling mill, through precise and stable control, combined with rich online shape control experience, can maximize the profit of production.
System composition
AFC central control unit
The high-precision shape-shaped automatic control system center based on the VLA control system platform is the basis for realizing online shape control and related interlocking process control.
Operator workstation
The operator interaction interface based on the VLA control system platform is responsible for the monitoring and command interaction of the operation of the plate-shaped roller portion, the wrap angle roller portion, the automatic shape control, the bending roller portion, the segment cooling system and the like.
Engineer workstation
Engineer interaction interface based on VLA control system platform. Responsible for adjusting and optimizing the parameters related to the shape control process and control effects, diagnosing system failures, generating production reports, and creating interfaces with the MES system.
