On Board Weighing Systems - for Steel Production
OnBoard Weighing Systems used in the Steel Industry can provide an immediate return on your investment. We have installed systems that track incoming raw materials, provide operator prompted blend recipes for EAF charging, and verify load weight for charging ladles and slag pots. The accurate blending of different grades and types of recycled metals, for delivery to Steel Producers, is critical. If errors are made, significant costs can be incurred for corrective action on the”heat”, or it can be scrapped altogether, which is very expensive. Some benefits provided by OnBoard Weighing include:
- Eliminate Travel to Certified Scales
- Blend materials accurately for Electric Arc Furnace charging
- Measure material inventory usage
- Track blend recipes target vs. actual product mix
- Provide documentation for your customer for each heat
- Reduce Maintenance Costs and Increase Vehicle Life
- Increase Safety and Reduce Liability Exposure
- Data Collection and Integration
