Definitions

  • the invention relates to a continuous caster with at least one robot for carrying out process-controlled or automated interventions in a continuous caster and access to associated auxiliary devices.
  • the invention further relates to a method for operating a continuous casting installation with the involvement of a robot.
  • the present invention extends to all types of continuous casting plants in which molten metal is passed from a melt container, such as a ladle, via a distributor vessel into a cooled mold, where it is formed with intensive cooling to form an at least partially solidified strand of any cross section and from the continuous casting plant is continuously promoted.
  • the casting systems can be equipped with oscillating tube and plate molds, caterpillar molds, rotating casting rollers with side plates (two-roller casting systems) or molds with rotating belts.
  • the strands can have slab, thin slab, strip, billet or billet cross-sections or any other pre-profile cross-sections of any dimensions.
  • Robots are used on a continuous caster to carry out recurring work and to eliminate malfunctions in hazardous areas where the operating personnel are exposed to excessive heat from the molten metal and the cast metal strand, or slag and metal splashes.
  • Robots are already used on the open continuous casting mold for observing the melt pool surface, for removing caking on the inside of the mold walls, for pouring powder, for temperature measurement and sampling and the like.
  • robots are used to change the shade tube, change the pouring tube and to change the closing plates of the slide valve and to blow out the outlet opening on distribution vessels and ladles.
  • the use of a multi-function robot on a continuous casting mold is already known from EP-B 371 482, the robot receiving data from the measuring process on the mold on the one hand and measurement data on the mold itself, for example, being recorded by an optical detection system, for example, and a deployment plan based on this information created and processed with priority assignment.
  • This is a stationary robot, the location of which has been specially selected for use on the mold and which is therefore not suitable for carrying out any activities that occur in areas of the continuous casting plant adjacent to the continuous casting mold.
  • Robots which are also assigned to a singular working area on a continuous caster, are known from US-A 5,067,553, JP-A 5-169206, JP-A 9-109100, JP-A 7-60434 and JP-A 5 -293615 known.
  • JP-A 3-71959 discloses the use of two robots on the casting platform of a multi-strand continuous casting installation, with each robot being assigned a roadway and the robot being able to assume an operating position on this in order to replace casting pipes on a large trough distributor and at the outlet openings to carry out cleaning work on the distribution vessel and the pouring pipes.
  • a defined work area is assigned to each robot, whereby it is not possible for a robot to work in the work area of the other robot, so that if one robot fails, the other robot cannot take over this work and the operator must intervene in the continuous caster.
  • the majority of robots increase investment and operating costs without at the same time achieving better availability of the individual robot.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to avoid these disadvantages and difficulties of the known prior art and to provide a continuous casting installation with at least one robot of the type described at the outset and a method for operating a To propose a continuous caster with the involvement of a robot, with which different interventions on a continuous caster can be carried out at different working positions that are beyond the reach of a single application position of a robot.
  • Another object of the invention is to increase the degree of utilization and the availability of the robot or robots used.
  • the continuous casting system is assigned a carriageway, that the robot is assigned a carriage and the carriage is guided displaceably on the carriageway, that at least one parking position and at least two application positions for the robot and each application position are defined on the carriageway Only accessible working areas on the continuous caster are assigned from this application position, that the distance between each application position of the robot and the assigned work area or supply area is defined within the minimum and maximum range of the robot arm and that the robot is equipped with a data transmission and data receiving device and this is connected to a central control device or a process computer of the continuous casting installation.
  • Use positions for the robot define locations of the robot along the road, from which one or more work areas on the continuous caster are within the reach of the robot gripper.
  • the use positions of the robot on the roadway are determined solely by the position of the chassis.
  • the pivoting angle of the boom of the swivel mechanism is also decisive for determining the position of the robot in addition to the position of the chassis.
  • Working areas of the robot are spatial areas or individual locations on the continuous caster, where the robot intervenes, starting from a predetermined position of use.
  • supply areas include storage bins with auxiliary devices, such as tool magazines, resource magazines and similar devices, which have defined positions for receiving and storing tools, spare parts and resources by the robot.
  • tools for the robot are stored in the auxiliary devices, such as e.g. Pliers, measuring probes, grinding heads, secondly spare parts for the continuous casting system, such as pouring pipes or slide plates, and thirdly, equipment for the ongoing operation of the continuous casting system, such as e.g. Casting powder.
  • the tool magazines and equipment magazines provided in the respective supply areas can be formed by stationary or mobile auxiliary devices, the mobile auxiliary devices, for example an equipment trolley, possibly only being brought into the supply area of a specific application position when necessary and being stored away from its supply position.
  • the parking position is defined as the position of the robot on the lane where it is when it is not performing any interventions and is waiting for a new application signal from the central control device or the process computer. If several robots are assigned to one lane, several parking positions are defined accordingly. In the case of two robots, the two parking positions are preferably arranged at opposite ends of the road.
  • the execution of process-controlled or automated interventions by the robot also includes the alternative possibility of manual intervention by the operating personnel.
  • These manual remote-controlled interventions can take place from the control room or via other portable control units.
  • the carriageway for the robot is preferably formed by a track system or by at least one track in the manner of a monorail or crane track. Appropriate control devices (position sensors, tracking systems) are used to move to predetermined positions.
  • the carriageway has branches with the integration of conventional rail switches. This means that operational positions away from a main carriageway can be defined and taken and multiple robots can be used without mutual hindrance.
  • individual sections of the carriageway are height-adjustable by means of lifting mechanisms or pivotable by pivoting mechanisms in order to change the position of the robot on the carriageway in such a way that the best possible access to the assigned work area is achieved.
  • Each robot is assigned a chassis on which it is supported or hangs, depending on the design of the road.
  • a robot swivel mechanism can be assigned to the undercarriage to enlarge its area of application, as a result of which the swivel position of the robot swivel mechanism determines at least two use positions for the robot.
  • the swivel mechanism preferably comprises a cantilever arm, on the cantilever end of which the robot is arranged.
  • the boom can be adapted to the needs of the application environment, and thus can also be designed to be height-adjustable, for example.
  • the robot is preferably fixed in its respective use positions with a locking device in order to avoid changes in position due to reaction forces from the interventions.
  • the carriageway can extend along the entire continuous caster and to different height levels and, preferably if the carriageway is designed as a track of a monorail, can also include inclines and descents.
  • the roadway is preferably limited to the casting platform and / or to the outlet area of the continuous casting installation.

  • Another division of the work to be carried out between the robots e.g. by assigning priorities to individual robots to specific positions of use or by manual remote control is quite possible, and is within the scope of the invention.
  • the invention further comprises a method for operating a continuous casting installation with the inclusion of at least one robot that can be displaced on a roadway between a parking position and at least two use positions and is characterized in that control signals are sent to the robot by a process computer or a central control device and in accordance with these control signals a selected application position is approached and automated interventions on the continuous casting system are carried out by the robot, the process signals or a central control device giving the control signals for the interventions to be carried out on the continuous casting system to the robot in the sequence of the priority of the interventions to be carried out.
  • the use of the robot is determined and managed by the process computer of the continuous caster or a central control device, the activities to be carried out being determined with regard to the quality of the product to be produced.
  • the basis for the priority assignment is an ongoing diagnosis of the casting process, thus the continuously collected measurement data and model calculations compared to the default data.
  • the robot itself also conducts state observations on the ongoing casting process at the continuous casting plant and collects measurement data. These measurement data are transmitted to the process computer or a central control device, processed by the process computer or the control device and the results of this data evaluation are converted into control signals for the robot or the continuous casting system.
