SmartARC®
SmartARC® enables more efficient, optimized steel production through decision-making powered by Artificial Intelligence, by dynamically adjusting power profiles, mimicking an expert furnace operator 24/7. It considers key process parameters such as heat MWH, raw material type and weight, arc stability, panel temperatures, electrode position, voltage and current, and every energy source to automatically manage:
- Voltage/Tap references
- Current references
- Reactor references
- Regulator response
- Protections
- Back charge signals
This leads to improved energy efficiency, reduced operational variability, and enhanced process stability in your EAF operation.
- Dynamic melting program. Control of electrical energy setpoints based on actual heat conditions. Includes Artificial Intelligence capabilities such as Machine Learning and Fuzzy Logic, algorithms.
- Improve arc stability. Better arc stability improves Power Input and decreases refractory or panel damage.
- Increasing productivity. Efficient energy input shortens the time required to melt the scrap.
- Lower cost. Efficient power input lowers consumptions. Less stress in the transformer and the power equipment reduces maintenance cost and time.
- Improves arc stability.
- Dynamic control of electrical energy based on heat conditions.
