[0053] Embodiments of the application provide a pouring control method, as shown in Figure 1 comprises:
[0054] Step S101: receiving an initial pouring relationship curve sent by a display interface, the initial pouring relationship curve being a relationship curve containing initial crucible angle setting values and initial pouring time setting values;
[0055] In the specific implementation process of the step, the initial pouring relationship curve is received by the display interface near the operation table and sent through the RS485 communication protocol; specifically, the display interface can be a touch screen. The traditional pouring control method is to manually input the initial pouring control relationship curve into the tilting controller. The application adds a touch screen near the operation table. The display interface of the touch screen sends the initial pouring relationship curve to the tilting controller through the RS485 communication protocol. The initial pouring relationship curve is generated in response to the drawing operation of the user on the display interface, or the initial pouring relationship curve is generated in response to reading the preset format file stored in the display interface. Specifically, the display interface can be used to manually draw the initial pouring relationship curve, and then the initial pouring relationship curve set by the display interface is imported into the tilting controller; or the mapping relationship between the initial crucible angle setting value and the initial pouring time setting value of the initial pouring relationship curve is set on the computer device by using a first predetermined format file, and then the display interface is stored in the preset storage device. The first predetermined format file can be an Excel table file. Compared with the manual input of the pouring curve on the tilting controller instrument in the prior art, the setting of the pouring curve on the computer device is simple and efficient. After setting the one-to-one correspondence between the initial pouring relationship curve and the corresponding crucible angle setting value and pouring time setting value on the Excel table, the preset storage device is converted into a predetermined format file and imported into the preset storage area of the display interface. The preset storage device can be a U disk, and the preset format file of the display interface can be a comma-separated value (CSV) format file. The CSV format file is imported into the preset storage area of the display interface, and the preset storage area can be the extended formula function area of the display interface. Then, the initial pouring relationship curve set by the display interface is written into the tilting controller by using the extended formula function of the display interface. The application manually draws the initial pouring relationship curve on the display interface or imports it into the display interface through the U disk, and then writes it into the tilting controller through the extended formula of the display interface. This is more simple and efficient than directly drawing the initial pouring relationship curve on the tilting controller instrument.
[0056] Step S102: When the casting sheet design thickness changes, the target pouring relationship curve corresponding to the production process of the to-be-processed casting sheet is obtained based on the initial pouring relationship curve and the to-be-processed casting sheet thickness.
[0057] In the specific implementation process, based on the thickness to be processed, the total production time of the production of the cast piece to be processed is determined; based on the total production time and the initial total production time corresponding to the initial pouring relationship curve, the change coefficient of the unit angle running time is calculated and obtained; specifically, the ratio of the initial total production time to the total production time is calculated to obtain the change coefficient. Based on the change coefficient, the target pouring time setting value corresponding to each target pouring angle setting value in the target pouring relationship curve to be generated is calculated and obtained; based on each target pouring angle setting value and each target pouring time setting value, the target pouring relationship curve is generated. The target pouring relationship curve refers to the relationship curve of each target pouring angle setting value and each target pouring time setting value. In order to make the molten steel in the crucible flow out at a constant flow, that is, the pouring speed is the same within the preset pouring time. The inclination angle pouring capacity relationship is y=f(ω), wherein ω is the target pouring angle setting value, y is the pouring capacity, the target pouring time setting value and the pouring capacity relationship is y=f(t), wherein t is the target pouring time setting value, y is the pouring capacity, when the target pouring angle setting value is the maximum inclination angle, all the molten steel is poured out, and the pouring time at this time is the total production time. The specific implementation process is calculated by the PLC control system of the cast piece production process. In actual application, the inclination controller and the PLC communicate through RS485, the register addresses of the inclination controller in the crucible angle setting value and the pouring time setting value are mapped to the PLC for setting and operation, when the cast piece design thickness changes, through the change coefficient obtained by calculation, the PLC automatically calculates the new pouring time value of the unit crucible pouring angle value and reimports it into the inclination controller, avoiding tedious manual operation and improving efficiency. The traditional method of changing the thickness of the cast product by changing the pouring curve needs manual calculation of the time of the unit angle inclination controller running, and then manually inputting the time variable of each step into the inclination controller, which is very time-consuming and prone to errors.
[0058] Step S103: in response to the received pouring start signal, start timing and generate an inclination control signal according to the target pouring relationship curve;
[0059] In the specific implementation process, the target pouring relationship curve of the function relationship between each target pouring angle setting value and each target pouring time setting value received by the inclination controller outputs a 0-5V inclination control signal to drive the hydraulic proportional valve amplifier control system to control the size of the hydraulic oil to drive the crucible to automatically tilt forward. The inclination control signal is a 0-5V analog signal. The inclination control signal is used to control the inclination angle of the inclination controller to make the liquid in the crucible flow out at a constant flow rate. According to the target pouring relationship curve, the inclination control signal is continuously sent according to the timing time to make the crucible pour the molten steel into the tundish at a constant flow rate within the preset pouring time.
[0060] Step S104: controlling the crucible to perform constant-flow pouring operation according to each target crucible angle setting value and each target pouring time setting value in the target pouring relationship curve based on the tilting control signal.
[0061] In the specific implementation, the step is performed by driving a hydraulic proportional valve amplifier based on the tilting control signal to control the crucible to perform constant-flow pouring operation according to each target crucible angle setting value and each target pouring time setting value in the target pouring relationship curve; obtaining a real-time rotation signal of the crucible, which is collected by a rotary encoder; calculating a real-time rotation angle value of the crucible based on the real-time rotation signal; and correcting the tilting control signal based on the real-time rotation angle value and the target pouring relationship curve, so that the real-time rotation angle value is consistent with the target crucible angle setting value of the target pouring relationship curve.
[0062] The application obtains an initial pouring relationship curve, which is a display interface near a pouring operation platform. The initial pouring relationship curve is a relationship curve containing each initial crucible angle setting value and each initial pouring time setting value. When the thickness of a cast slab changes, a target pouring relationship curve corresponding to the production process of a to-be-processed cast slab is obtained based on the initial pouring relationship curve and the thickness of the to-be-processed cast slab. In response to a received pouring start signal, a tilting control signal is generated according to the target pouring relationship curve. The crucible is controlled to perform constant-flow pouring operation according to each target crucible angle setting value and each target pouring time setting value in the target pouring relationship curve based on the tilting control signal. The initial pouring relationship curve is received from the display interface. The initial pouring relationship curve is manually set on the display interface or imported to the display interface through a storage device after being edited on a pc or the like, and then written to a tilting controller through a formula of the display interface. The operation is convenient. When the thickness of the cast slab changes, each target pouring angle setting value and each target pouring time setting value corresponding to the to-be-generated target pouring relationship curve are directly calculated by the PLC, and then the target pouring relationship curve is obtained. Manual adjustment of parameter values on the tilting controller instrument is not required, thereby saving work and improving work efficiency.
[0063] In another embodiment of the application, another pouring control method is provided, as shown in Figure 2 The method comprises the following steps:
[0064] Step S201: receiving the initial pouring relationship curve sent by the display interface of the operation platform through the RS485 communication protocol;
[0065] In the specific implementation process of the step, the initial pouring relationship curve is generated in response to a user's drawing operation on the display interface, or the initial pouring relationship curve is generated in response to reading a preset storage device storing a preset format file of the display interface. Specifically, the display interface can be a touch screen. A conventional pouring control method is to manually input an initial pouring control relationship curve into a tilting controller. The application adds a touch screen near the operation table. The display interface of the touch screen sends the initial pouring relationship curve to the tilting controller through an RS485 communication protocol. The display interface can be used to manually draw the initial pouring relationship curve, and then the initial pouring relationship curve set is imported into the tilting controller using the expansion formula of the display interface. The client can be a computer device, and the first predetermined format file can be an Excel table file. Setting the pouring curve on the computer device is simpler and more efficient than manually inputting the pouring curve on the tilting controller instrument in the prior art. After setting the one-to-one correspondence between the initial pouring relationship curve and the corresponding crucible angle setting value and the pouring time setting value on the Excel table, the preset storage device is converted into a predetermined format file and imported into the preset storage area of the display interface. The preset storage device can be a U disk, and the predetermined format file can be a comma-separated value (CSV) format file. The CSV format file is imported into the preset storage area of the display interface, and the preset storage area can be an expansion formula function area of the display interface. Then, the initial pouring relationship curve set is written into the tilting controller using the expansion formula function of the display interface. The application manually draws the initial pouring relationship curve on the display interface or imports it into the display interface through a U disk, and then writes it into the tilting controller through the expansion formula of the display interface.
[0066] The initial pouring relationship curve can also be obtained according to manual pouring of the crucible by an experienced operator. Specifically, each sampling point of the forward inclination of the manually inclined crucible is collected in real time based on a preset angle interval, and each sampling point includes a historical crucible pouring angle setting value and a historical pouring time setting value corresponding to the historical crucible pouring angle setting value; a manual pouring curve corresponding to the manual inclination process is generated based on each historical crucible pouring angle setting value and each historical pouring time setting value; and the manual pouring curve is taken as the initial pouring relationship curve to control the crucible to perform the constant-flow pouring operation according to each historical crucible pouring angle setting value and each historical pouring time setting value in the manual pouring relationship curve. When the smelting worker manually inclines the molten steel liquid to perform the pouring operation, the crucible is always forward inclined, and the pouring angle value is always increasing. The PLC internally collects the time used for each degree of inclination of the crucible at a preset angle interval, which can be selected as the time change of one degree of rotation of the crucible, and records the time, and plans the corresponding inclination degree of the crucible. When the worker manually inclines the molten steel liquid, the manual ideal pouring curve is recorded by the PLC, and the ideal pouring curve is written into the inclination controller through RS485 communication, so as to form the initial pouring relationship curve, which can be directly called.
[0067] Step S202: When the design thickness of the cast sheet is unchanged, in response to the received pouring start signal, the timing is started, and the inclination control signal corresponding to the initial pouring relationship curve is generated according to the initial pouring relationship curve;
[0068] In the specific implementation process, during the production of the cast sheet, for example, the design thickness of the cast sheet produced by the initial pouring relationship curve is 0.28 mm, and the qualified rate is greater than or equal to 90%, and the same thickness of the cast sheet is to be produced and the qualified rate is required to be the same, the initial pouring relationship curve can be directly used for the production of the cast sheet.
[0069] Step S203: When the design thickness of the cast sheet is changed, the total production time of the cast sheet to be processed is determined based on the thickness to be processed.
[0070] In the specific implementation process, for example, the original constant-flow initial pouring relationship curve is 18 minutes in total, the thickness of the cast sheet product produced is 0.28 mm, and the proportion is more than 90%, and the design thickness of the cast sheet is required to be 0.29 mm, and the proportion is more than 90%, and the time of the original pouring curve needs to be shortened to 16 minutes. In the specific implementation process, the total pouring production time is shortened as the thickness of the cast sheet increases, and the total pouring production time is increased as the thickness of the cast sheet decreases. The different pouring total production times corresponding to the production of cast sheets of different thicknesses are obtained according to the experience data obtained from long-term pouring operation, and the data can be directly obtained when the pouring relationship curve is set.
[0071] Step S204: based on the total production time and the initial total production time corresponding to the initial pouring relationship curve, a change coefficient of unit angle running time is calculated;
[0072] In the specific implementation process of this step, the change coefficient is the ratio of the total production time to the initial total production time corresponding to the initial pouring relationship curve. For example, the original constant flow initial pouring relationship curve is 18 minutes in total, the design thickness of the cast sheet is required to be 0.29 mm, which accounts for more than 90%, and the original pouring curve time needs to be shortened to 16 minutes. Therefore, the change coefficient is the total production time / initial total production time=16 min / 18 min≈0.889.
[0073] Step S205: based on the change coefficient, target pouring time set values corresponding to each target pouring angle set value in the target pouring relationship curve to be generated are calculated;
[0074] In the specific implementation process of this step, the display interface reads the initial pouring relationship curve from the tilting controller, and then imports the initial pouring relationship curve into the PLC system through the extended formula. The original time register address type mapped to the PLC in the tilting controller is long integer data. All mapped time long integer register addresses are converted to floating point register addresses. After the floating point register addresses participate in the calculation, they are converted to long integer register addresses that can be recognized by the tilting controller. For example, the original initial pouring relationship curve needs to run for 18 seconds when the crucible runs from a pouring angle value of 49° to a pouring angle value of 50°. The time required to run now is 18s*0.899=15.9s≈16s. That is, after the change coefficient 0.889 is interacted to the PLC on the display interface, the tilting controller will automatically calculate the pouring time value within the unit angle required, that is, the target pouring time set value corresponding to each target pouring angle set value is obtained.
[0075] Step S206: based on each target pouring angle set value and each target pouring time set value, the target pouring relationship curve is generated;
[0076] In the specific implementation process of this step, based on each target pouring angle set value and each target pouring time set value, the target pouring time set value generated on the PLC is floating point data. After the pouring time value corresponding to each pouring angle value is rounded, the target pouring relationship curve is generated. The curve is exported from the PLC to the display interface, and then the target pouring relationship curve is sent to the tilting controller by the display interface using the RS485 communication protocol, which lays a foundation for subsequent production of cast sheets with changed design requirements.
[0077] Step S207: In response to the received pouring start signal, start timing and generate a tilting control signal according to the target pouring relationship curve;
[0078] In the implementation of this step, the target pouring relationship curve of the function relationship between the target tilting angle setting value and the target tilting time setting value received by the tilting controller outputs a 0-5V tilting control signal to drive the hydraulic proportional valve amplifier control system to control the amount of hydraulic oil, thereby driving the crucible to automatically tilt forward. The tilting control signal is a 0-5V analog signal. The tilting control signal is used to control the tilting angle of the crucible by the tilting control instrument, so that the liquid in the crucible flows out in a constant flow manner. The height of the side baffle of the flow guide groove limits the tilting angle of the crucible. On the basis of ensuring that the molten steel flows out smoothly, it is also necessary to ensure that the molten steel flows along the flow guide direction of the flow guide groove and cannot overflow outside the flow guide groove. That is, when the crucible is tilted, the page height of the molten steel in the crucible needs to be less than the height of the side baffle of the flow guide groove. According to the target pouring relationship curve, the tilting control signal is continuously sent according to the timing time, so that the crucible pours the molten steel into the tundish in a constant flow manner within the preset pouring time.
[0079] Step S208: Control the crucible to perform constant-flow tilting pouring operation according to each target crucible angle setting value and each target tilting time setting value in the target pouring relationship curve based on the tilting control signal;
[0080] In the implementation of this step, the target pouring relationship curve of the function relationship between the target tilting angle setting value and the target tilting time setting value received by the tilting controller outputs a 0-5V tilting control signal to drive the hydraulic proportional valve amplifier control system to control the amount of hydraulic oil, thereby driving the crucible to automatically tilt forward. The tilting control signal is a 0-5V analog signal. The tilting control signal is used to control the tilting angle of the crucible by the tilting control instrument, so that the liquid in the crucible flows out in a constant flow manner. The height of the side baffle of the flow guide groove limits the tilting angle of the crucible. On the basis of ensuring that the molten steel flows out smoothly, it is also necessary to ensure that the molten steel flows along the flow guide direction of the flow guide groove and cannot overflow outside the flow guide groove. That is, when the crucible is tilted, the page height of the molten steel in the crucible needs to be less than the height of the side baffle of the flow guide groove. According to the target pouring relationship curve, the tilting control signal is continuously sent according to the timing time, so that the crucible pours the molten steel into the tundish in a constant flow manner within the preset pouring time.
[0081] Step S209: Real-time display of each parameter data of the pouring process on the operation platform display interface, and alarm and control the pouring process to stop running when each parameter data is abnormal.
[0082] In the specific implementation process of the present step, the remaining pouring time, the real-time pouring angle value, the real-time crucible angle setting value, the voltage output percentage, the pouring curve code and other parameter data are displayed on the display interface in real time. The operator can determine the progress of the current pouring process according to the parameter data displayed on the display interface. When each parameter is abnormal, the abnormality is alarmed and the pouring process is controlled to stop running. Compared with the traditional display on the pouring controller, it is more intuitive and convenient. The pouring controller is generally installed far away from the operator's operating position. The traditional method cannot allow the operator to intuitively see the progress of the current pouring process. When the on-site operator needs to know the current production progress, he needs to ask for help from others. However, the present application displays the parameter data of the production process on the display interface near the operating site, so that the operator can easily understand the production process in real time and improve the work efficiency.
[0083] The present application receives the initial pouring relationship curve sent by the operating platform display interface by adopting the RS485 communication protocol. Manual setting on the tilting controller instrument is not required, and the operation is convenient and the work efficiency is improved. When the design thickness of the casting sheet is unchanged, in response to the received pouring start signal, the timing is started and the tilting control signal corresponding to the initial pouring relationship curve is generated according to the initial pouring relationship curve. When the design thickness of the casting sheet changes, the total production time of the production casting sheet to be processed is determined based on the thickness to be processed. Based on the total production time and the initial total production time corresponding to the initial pouring relationship curve, the change coefficient of the unit angle running time is calculated and obtained. Based on the change coefficient, the target pouring time setting value corresponding to each target pouring angle setting value in the target pouring relationship curve to be generated is calculated and obtained. The target pouring relationship curve is generated based on each target pouring angle setting value and each target pouring time setting value. The target pouring time setting value corresponding to each target pouring angle setting value of the target pouring relationship curve to be generated is automatically calculated by inputting the change coefficient into the PLC system, without manual setting on the tilting controller, which reduces errors and improves work efficiency. In response to the received pouring start signal, the timing is started and the tilting control signal is generated according to the target pouring relationship curve. Based on the tilting control signal, the crucible is controlled to perform constant-flow pouring operation according to each target crucible angle setting value and each target pouring time setting value in the target pouring relationship curve. Each parameter data of the pouring process is displayed on the display interface near the operating platform in real time. When each parameter is abnormal, the abnormality is alarmed and the pouring process is controlled to stop running. It is convenient for the operator to view the production process data in real time and improve the work efficiency.
