Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of strip steel production technology, specifically to a method and electronic device for controlling the surface quality of hot-dip galvanized strip steel. Background Technology

[0002] Hot-dip galvanized steel strip is a processing method in which a metallic or non-metallic coating is hot-dip galvanized onto the surface of steel strip. In the deep processing of steel strip, this typically refers to hot-dip galvanizing with zinc or other coatings to improve its corrosion resistance and service life. Galvanized steel strip is one of the most common hot-dip galvanized products. The production of galvanized steel strip mainly involves several stages: pickling, galvanizing, and cooling. This includes cleaning and drying after pickling, and air blowing after galvanizing. Each step directly affects the final quality of the galvanized steel strip; therefore, controlling the surface quality of galvanized steel strip is a complex and challenging technical problem.

[0003] To control the surface quality of galvanized steel strip, people usually conduct quality inspections on the final product after the galvanized steel strip is processed. When quality problems occur, the process parameters are adjusted in reverse. The parameter adjustment is usually based on experience judgment or continuous debugging and trial production. This control method not only has serious lag, but also the debugging is inaccurate, which affects the normal production.

[0004] Existing technology CN113136537A discloses a method for improving the surface quality of hot-dip galvanized strip steel, comprising: cleaning a hot-rolled substrate and then heating it to obtain an annealed steel sheet; the heating is carried out in a hydrogen atmosphere with an oxygen content ≤5ppm and a volume fraction of 18%–20%, and the pressure is controlled at 170–190Pa, the furnace temperature at 1280–1300℃, and the strip temperature of the hot-rolled substrate at 650–680℃; the annealed steel sheet is then hot-dip galvanized, cooled, and surface treated to obtain hot-dip galvanized strip steel with high surface quality. This method reduces the probability of surface quality defects in the strip steel and ensures the stability of product quality. However, the process parameters are not universal for galvanizing processes on different substrates or for galvanized strip steel with different requirements, so the method provided by the existing technology is only applicable to a small range of galvanized strip steel products. In addition, for other surface treatment processes of strip steel, such as hot-dip galvanizing, aluminum zinc silicon galvanizing, zinc aluminum galvanizing, etc., there is a cooling process after hot-dip galvanizing, which results in a serious lag in the control of surface treatment process parameters of strip steel.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a method and electronic device for controlling the surface quality of hot-dip galvanized steel strip, which can quickly adjust important parameters in the hot-dip galvanizing process of steel strip, thereby improving the surface quality of hot-dip galvanized steel strip.

Some of the production steps of the steel strip in this embodiment are as follows: Figure 2As shown, the strip steel moves into a zinc bath for galvanizing. After galvanizing, it passes through an air knife, which uses air to blow away the galvanizing liquid from the strip surface, ensuring a uniform galvanized layer thickness. The strip steel then sequentially passes through a first moving fan, a second moving fan, a first high-tower fan, a second high-tower fan, a third high-tower fan, and a fourth high-tower fan to allow the galvanized coating to condense. A camera is positioned between the first and second high-tower fans. The specific quality control methods for the galvanized strip steel produced using this process include:

[0117] Until the integral value The integral value up to L is: Figure 3 The shaded area represents the distance. At this time, time i corresponds to the moment the strip passes the second moving fan. The process parameter value corresponding to time i is obtained from the time-process data curve, i.e., the process parameter value for the target process position; thus, the correlation information between the strip position and the process data is obtained, i.e., the process history information of the strip position. In this embodiment, the frequency f of the second moving fan is obtained from the corresponding time-second moving fan frequency curve at this moment. mob2 It is 40Hz.

[0131] S3501, the k processes before obtaining a real-time surface image of the galvanized strip: Process1, Process2, ..., Process... k Location; such as Figure 2 Given the camera positions shown, k is 3. Process1 represents the first tower fan, Process2 represents the second mobile fan, and Process3 represents the first mobile fan.

[0132] S3502, Calculate the position of each process step. i The preceding strip steel, and the process of this operation. i The previous process corresponds to the distance between equipment, thus obtaining the process steps. i The actual process parameters of the processes that the strip steel has already undergone;

[0133] S3503, Using the camera as a reference, optimize k processes from near to far, including:

[0134] Obtain the process parameters for Process 1 at the current moment. The current frequency of the first tower fan is 20Hz. Combine these parameters with the actual process parameters experienced by the strip steel before Process 1. The process parameters of the strip steel before Process 1 are x1 = {width, thk, f}. tower1 f mob2 f mob1 temp zn temp strip}={410, 2.2, 20, 42.5, 27.3, 452, 495}; The condensation rate R1 of the strip steel before Process 1, predicted by the condensation rate prediction model, is 0.07, or 7%.

[0135] The process parameters corresponding to Process1 are optimized so that the condensation rate predicted by the condensation rate prediction model is within the set target condensation rate range. For example, if the set target condensation rate is 0.03 (3%), the allowable condensation rate range is 0.029-0.031 (2.9%-3.1%). Therefore, the condensation rate predicted by the condensation rate prediction model after optimizing the process parameters needs to be within the range of 0.029-0.031. The optimized process parameters corresponding to Process1 are denoted as p1. The frequency of the first high-tower fan after optimization is 19.7Hz.

[0136] Obtain the process parameters for Process 2 at the current moment. The frequency of the second moving fan is 42.3Hz. Combine these parameters with the actual process parameters of the strip steel before Process 2 and p1 to obtain x2 = {width, thk, f}. tower1 f mob2 f mob1 temp zn temp strip}={410, 2.2, 19.7, 42.3, 27.5, 453, 497}; The condensation rate R2 of the strip steel before Process 2, predicted by the condensation rate prediction model, is 0.01, or 1%.

[0137] The process parameters corresponding to the process position Process2 are optimized, while the process parameters of Process1 are kept at p1. The optimized process parameters are used to predict the condensation rate through the condensation rate prediction model so that the condensation rate is within the set target condensation rate range. The optimized process parameters corresponding to the process position Process2 are then recorded as p2. The frequency of the second moving fan is 42.6Hz after optimization.

[0138] The optimization process is repeated until k processes are optimized, and the optimization results p1, p2, and p3 for each process are obtained. The final optimization results are p1 = 19.7 Hz, p2 = 42.6 Hz, and p3 = 27.2 Hz.

[0139] The entire process for galvanizing steel strip was adjusted based on the optimization results. Figure 4 The graph shows a comparison between the target condensation rate and the measured condensation rate over time. It can be seen from the graph that the optimized condensation rate fluctuates slightly around the target condensation rate, indicating that the condensation rate control method of the present invention has achieved good control effect.

[0141] S401.

[0142] The similarity is expressed using Euclidean distance, but Mahalanobis distance, cosine distance, etc., can also be used to represent the similarity.

[0143] Assuming the dataset contains 1000 samples, determine the distance between the process parameters and each of the 1000 samples in the dataset, finding the minimum distance d. i Is it greater than the threshold d? limit If the conditions are met, the new sample x is added to the training database; otherwise, the sample is discarded.
