Abstract:Casthouse equipment automation transformation practice of Masteel’s 4 000 m3 BF was introduced,and the intelligent operation of casthouse equipment was discussed and analyzed. HMI + operation table + remote-control operation of casthouse equipment was realized, the operating environment was greatly improved, and the operation was more convenient and safe. The transformation practice achieved the original intention of fewer staffs and more output,"one-button plugging" and tap hole data modularization. After the transformation, there was still room for improvement in the automatic operation of casthouse equipment. In order to improve the stability of working process, it could be started from three aspects: automatically adding mud to the mud bubble, automatically changing the drill rod of the taphole machine, and automatically switching the swing chute. At present, remote operation and one-button operation of the main casthouse equipment had been basically realized, intelligent operation of casthouse equipment had become an important future development.
