Embodiment Construction

[0023] For the purposes of facilitating an understanding of the principles of the invention, reference will be made to the preferred embodiment shown in the drawings and specific language will be used to describe the same. Nevertheless, it should be understood that no limitation of the scope of the invention is intended thereto, and that changes and further modifications in the illustrated embodiments, as well as further applications of the principles of the invention shown herein, will be apparent to those skilled in the art. considered to occur normally.

[0024] The invention is based on the production of steel strip in a continuous strip caster. The applicant has carried out extensive research and development work in the field of continuous strip casting machines in the form of twin roll casting machines for casting steel strip. Broadly speaking, continuous casting of steel strip in a twin-roll caster involves introducing molten steel between a pair of counter-rotating ho...

Abstract

A method of controlling a continuous steel strip casting process based on customer-specified requirements includes a general purpose computer in which product specifications of steel product ordered by a customer is entered. The computer is configured to automatically map the product specifications to process parameters / set points for controlling the continuous steel strip casting process in a manner to produce the customer ordered product, and in one embodiment produces a process change report detailing such process parameters / set points for operator use in physically implementing such process parameters / set points in the strip casting process. Alternatively, the computer may provide the process parameters / set points directly to the strip casting process for automatic control thereof in producing the customer ordered steel product. The process of the present invention is capable of substantially reducing the time between a customer request for a steel product and delivery thereof over that of conventional steel manufacturing processes.

Description

[0001] Cross-references to related applications [0002] This application claims priority to and benefit from US Provisional Application 60 / 236390, filed September 29,2000. technical field [0003] The present application relates generally to systems and methods for supplying steel strip to order, and in particular to such systems and methods for translating customer-specific steel strip requirements into process operating parameters for controlling a continuous strip casting process, And manipulate this parameter to produce customer-specific steel strip products. Background technique [0004] Traditional steel industry processes for fulfilling customer orders for steel with specific machinery and dimensions are complex and time consuming, and typically require 10 or more weeks to complete. For example, referring to FIG. 1 , there is shown a flow diagram illustrating the flow of a conventional process 10 for producing custom-made steel strip products, wherein the term "stri...
