Industry-leading simulation models, honed through 100+ plant configurations.
Unifying metallurgical and logistical competence for a seamless collaboration.
Achieving the shortest project timelines to accommodate any schedule.
An exceptional scrap yard model captures every detail. From accurate kinematics of scrap handling equipment to realistic working schedules, the model includes steel grade-based scrap bucket recipes down to the scrap layers. A realistic scrap pile model is essential for managing tasks and asset utilization efficiently, featuring offload, bulk, and up-piling areas with dynamic heights.
Typical applications:
Cranes are at the heart of melt shop logistics. Precise trajectory planning to avoid any obstacles using parallel or sequentially movements in all axes, is the mandatory. Multiple cranes in the same bay must coordinate their work, clearly stating which should go first while others yield. For a full workload not only ladles must be considered but also other transports like tundishes, slag pots, big bags, or pallets. Our model incorporates these and many additional features to clearly identify the bottleneck in the production.
Typical applications:
From the run-out of the caster to storage and finally to the reheating furnace, this area is pure logistics. For realistic production the simulation model must operate at the billet, bloom, or slab level. Only with mechanically accurate implementation of pusher tables, cooling beds and roller tables can bottlenecks be identified. The location of each billet must be specified down to the stack and level to determine production limits for various formats, lengths, and steel grades combinations.
