The system, powered by Al-based identifies surface quality issues and reduces production downtime due to strip breakage and other defects. For manufacturers, processing sheet metal out of sequence or with undetected pickling errors can lead to production delays and equipment damage. Primetals Technologies has developed AI-powered computer vision solutions to prevent this, enabling automatic sheet identification and strip surface tracking.
System identifies sheets at an early stage to ensure correct sorting of sheets, and the data is transmitted to the sheet management system for correct storage. This optimizes crane operations and ensures correct sorting during sheet loading by identifying and notifying the operator of sheets that do not match the production schedule.
Data is transmitted to automation systems and used for further processing, analysis and documentation. This information enables adjustments to be made at later stages to change speeds or adapt cutting plans.
SSAB Hämeenlinna's system can be continuously optimized and trained to detect new sheet marking and pickling errors. SSAB emphasized the system's high accuracy and success in tracking fast-moving coils and noted that Primetals Technologies offers a broad portfolio of digital assistants for all production units.
