Performance audit brings immediate dividends
In January 2003, California Steel Industries purchased a Millcheck rolling mill shape performance audit for its five stand cold mill at Fontana, California, USA.
The open architecture control system incorporates IAS's easy to maintain graphical programming interface, and takes advantage of IAS's considerable process knowhow and local support.
The scope of supply also includes new mill mechanical "top hats" to accommodate and protect new Inductosyn position transducers and a new shape roll transducer box interfacing to an existing (Davy) Shape Technology Vidimon airbearing roll.
Engineering design, project management, installation assistance, commissioning, operator/maintenance training, and a 12 month online maintenance contract will be executed from IAS's offices in Pittsburgh, PA.
The integrated solution from IAS incorporates equipment from Shape Technology.
This order further strengthens the relationship with Ormet for whom IAS/Broner carried out the last two mill upgrades.
