通过激光测量仪优化长材轧制厂的生产和质量
线材、棒材和条材的热轧是一种快速、复杂而又要求精密的工艺。人工手量和目视，或离线实验室测试，均不足以发现生产问题。结果延迟，不够准确，或者测量过程中存在危险。快速、非接触式激光传感器作为手持或移动测量工具，可弥补在线安装测量仪在这方面的空缺。
机器人除渣系统是未来所趋
目前的镀锌生产工艺需要将预热的钢板拉入 400 至 500℃的浸锌槽。操作人员必须穿戴舒适度不佳的防护服，在炙热的环境中手动从浸锌槽中清除渣滓(锌渣)。这种不安全的情况每天都在重复发生，如此操作带来诸多风险。Tebulo Industrial Robotics 致力于为该生产环境开发一种机器人除渣系统，其智能工具可在任何现有的镀锌钢生产过程中轻松实施，即使是在空间有限的情况下也是如此。
Enhancing Direct Reduced Iron (DRI) for use in electric steelmaking
Direct Reduced Iron (DRI) is a valuable source of virgin iron for the electric steelmaking process. Its production is associated with less than half the CO2 emissions of blast furnace produced pig iron, but has a less favourable value in use and potential difficulties with transport and storage. Two concepts […]

MIDA Hybrid: a new milestone, solar-powered by Danieli
Digital controls for EAF melting and casting bring together efficiency, power, and flexibility for a new steelmaking scenario, that combines mini-mill technology, renewable energy and digital process control to achieve high yield, low emission steelmaking. Energy savings of up to 330kWh/t are possible with MIDA ECR and an additional 90kWh/t […]
Mitigating the emissions of acid pollutants from dry blast furnace gas cleaning plants
Given the improved operational economics and, in some areas, the physical or economic scarcity of water, steel producers are shifting towards the application of blast furnace gas cleaning systems, in which the wet scrubber has been replaced with a second, dry gas treatment stage. While in traditional systems, acid pollutants […]
Hydrogen flameless oxyfuel for CO2 free heating
To meet the challenge of CO2 emissions from burners and furnaces, such as during reheating, Linde has worked with Ovako to develop and demonstrate a green hydrogen oxyfuel combustion system. This system was tested in the laboratory and at a rolling mill and found to work safely and effectively, without […]
