  • Genetic programming and Štore Steel Ltd. [Elektronski vir]

    Štore Steel Ltd. is one of the biggest spring steel producers in Europe. Steelmaking in Štore begins with scrap melting in an electro-arc furnace in steel plant. The melting bath, which is heated up ... to tapping temperature according to further treatment procedures, is discharged into the casting ladle. After achieving proper melt temperature from the melting bath the billets are continuously cast. The melting bath flows through a sliding gate system and ladle shroud towards the tundish. After filling up the tundish with a help of the mould filling system with tundish stoppers and submerged pouring tubes, the casting is established. The billets, with a square section of 180 mm, are cast. After reaching a certain melting bath level, the billets are dragged out of the mould. In this way the continuous casting is established. Each billet goes through the cooling zone toward the gas cutters, where it is cut and laid off onto the cooling bed. After the heating of (already cooled down) billets, they are hot rolled in the strand of rolls in the rolling plant. Through the roll grooves with different shapes and dimensions the cylindrical, square or flat steel bars can be produced. Steel bars are cooled on the cooling bed. After cooling they are cut on the hot shears in different lengths. Additionally the rolled material can be heat treated, straightened, controlled (automatic control line for detecting surface defects, inner defects and mixed material, magnetic particle inspection, manual ultrasonic inspection), cut, peeled, polished, chamfered and finally packed and stored. The paper presents usage of genetic programming in Štore Steel Ltd. It has been widely used in its production since 2004.
