This paper explores the application of AI in the steel-making process at Japan Steel works and how AI can enhance productivity and quality.
Application of AI in Japan Steel Works
The application of AI in the steel-making process of Japan Steel Works has been studied over the past decade. In particular, AI has been applied to production optimization, temperature control and process monitoring.
Production Optimization
AI-based optimization strategies have been utilized to optimize the process in Japan Steel Works. The AI-based optimization strategies monitor the relevant process conditions such as the temperature, composition, and rate of transfer of the metal, and then adjust the parameters to maximize the production efficiency. Moreover, AI-based systems can also be used to identify the best process routes to reduce energy consumption and improve product quality.
Temperature Control
Temperature control is an important factor in steel-making and AI has been used to improve temperature control. Using AI, the system can identify the optimum temperature and adjust the heaters accordingly to ensure that the desired temperature is maintained throughout the process. This results in improved product quality and cost savings due to increased efficiency.
Process Monitoring
As the process at Japan Steel Works requires high levels of safety and accuracy, AI-based systems have been implemented to monitor the steel-making process. AI-based systems are able to identify any anomalies or deviations in the process and alert the plant operators of a potential issue. This permits production to be adjusted in order to minimize any potential errors or risks.
