关于客户
Alcan International,加拿大世界领先的矿业公司和铝制造商。
挑战
加铝的日程安排很紧,要将其铝土矿从 2.2 吨扩大到 380 万吨氧化铝矿物加工精炼厂。 Alcan 面临的挑战包括平衡资本成本、最大限度地减少现场施工人员的数量、在不影响当前运营设施的情况下整合绿地和棕地设施,同时实现项目预算、进度和质量。
解决方案
加铝决定使用预组装模块 (PAM) 概念进行扩展,该概念使所有模块都可以在泰国和越南异地建造。通过使用艾默生的 DeltaV 和 AMS 设备管理器预先调试 FOUNDATION 现场总线设备,Alcan 显着减少了工时并节省了成本。软件组件 - DeltaV 和 AMS 设备管理器

Continuous Casting Machines in a Steel Factory
With a very broad range of applications, steel is an important material and has been developed into the most extensive alloy in the engineering world. Since delivering high quality is absolutely crucial for steel plants, ensuring maximum productivity and the best quality production are the keys to competitiveness in the steel industry. Additionally, working conditions in steel factories are not suitable for workers to stay in for long periods of time, so manufactures usually adopt various machines to complete the steel production processes. However, the precision of these machines is often overestimated and the lack of flexibility also makes supervisors unable to adjust operating procedures. A renowned steel factory in Asia planned to improve its Distributed Control System (DCS) of furnaces as well as addressing the problem of insufficient accuracy. However, most well-known international equipment suppliers can not provide a satisfactory solution and local maintenance because the project needed new technologies to more accurately control equipment operations. By implementing Advantech’s automated monitoring and control solution, steel factories can not only improve the manufacturing processes but can also allow users to add additional functions to the existing system so as to make sure the operation runs at high efficiency.
