The invention discloses an automatic steel feeding
system for slab heating furnaces, and relates to the technical field of
automation control. The automatic steel feeding
system comprises the heatingfurnaces, a plurality of steel feeding roller beds and a feeding roller
bed, and further includes a slab information
database, a slab predetermined position module, a human-computer interaction module, a communication module and a PLC control module. The feeding roller
bed and the multiple steel feeding roller beds are connected in sequence, and the steel feeding roller beds are located at different positions of the heating furnaces. A photoelectric detecting sensor is arranged at the front end of each of the steel feeding roller beds. The slab information
database and the slab predetermined position module are both connected to the PLC control module through the communication module, and the human-computer interaction module is connected with the slab information
database and the slab predetermined position module. The steel feeding roller beds, the feeding roller
bed and the photoelectric detecting sensor are all connected with the PLC control module. The invention further disclosesan automatic steel feeding method for the slab heating furnaces. The automatic steel feeding
system and method improve the efficiency of steel feeding of slabs, reduce the
energy consumption and reduce the labor intensity of operators.
