Digital Assistance Tools and Remote Service Solutions for Electric Arc Furnaces (Room 315)

Understanding electric arc furnace (EAF) plant digitalization includes the seamless interaction of equipment and smart automation with digital assistance tools like know-how databases and a rules engine. These tools assist EAF operators in the efficient production of established and new steel grades. New features from business intelligence systems allow deep insight and provide essential information for best decisions and life cycle measures. In addition, service contracts with a flexible validity period and secure cloud technology for remote support are a good value-add to get access to professional analyses. Adding predictive maintenance strategies can also be done without compromises for availability and reliability.
