Steel batching system

The first part of the design of technical documents

I. Overview

In recent years, the iron and steel smelting industry in China has developed rapidly. Sintered ore is the main raw material for ironmaking. The process of furnish is an important part of the quality of sinter. Each weighing equipment can guarantee the quality of ore only if it reaches a certain accuracy.

The traditional sintering process mainly relies on work experience to adjust, there are the following problems:

D can not adjust the ratio in time, production efficiency is low.

D Due to the lack of metering equipment, there are many man-made influencing factors, the material can not be well controlled, the waste is serious, the production cost is greatly increased, the failure rate is high, and a large amount of waste products are caused.

D Due to the serious dust pollution of materials, it seriously affects the health of workers. In recent years, the degree of automation in industrial processes has become higher and higher and people’s awareness of environmental protection has increased. Frequency conversion technology has been widely used at home and abroad for its excellent performance.

Second, the main functions and features of the system

1, the main function of the control system

A monitoring function: to detect and monitor the instantaneous flow rate, daily total, monthly total, annual total, etc. of the belt weighing process;

A screen display: Through the computer display can display the operating parameters of the control parameters in the process of ingredients, and display real-time ingredients curve and table;

A. Data processing: The system can automatically process the collected signals and output them to the corresponding control volume.

A control function: According to the corresponding set value before operation, automatic control of the normal operation of the equipment, including PID adjustment;

A alarm function: the host computer uses the screen mode and acousto-optic signal mode to alarm various parameters or device status abnormalities.

2, the main features of the system

A adopts a small and medium-sized distributed control system in the system structure to achieve "decentralized control and centralized management" and overcome the "dangerous concentration" problem;

A upper computer and lower computer are relatively independent. It has manual, automatic and semi-automatic switching functions. When online, they exchange information with each other according to a specific protocol. When offline, a single scale can independently realize the process closed-loop process control.

A adopts PID adjustment to improve the system's dosing accuracy, and can set the optimal working switch timing according to production requirements, better solve the problem of feed end of material, and automatically modify the material ratio of the dosing system;

Third, the system structure and working principle

1, the overall structure of the control system topology and system schematics

The system consists of a PLC system and a host computer monitoring system. The PLC system consists of an S7-300 master station and 13 instruments as slave stations and dedicated communication cables. The master station and slave station communicate via PROFIBUS-DP. The host computer monitoring system uses the Windows 2000 Professional Server SP2 operating system and installs Siemens STEP 7 programming software. WINCCV6.0 configuration software.

The overall topology of the control system and the system schematic are as follows:

System schematic

B host computer: real-time monitoring of the entire system, screen display and report printing;

B PLC: automatic control of ingredients;

B batching instrument: It is used for the PID adjustment of the ingredients and the display of the instantaneous flow and cumulative flow and other parameters;

B control cabinet: for the system's logic control and power distribution;

B. Field operation box: It is used to start and stop the single equipment in the field.

2. The operating mode of the system: Each batch of ingredients is called manual, semi-automatic, automatic three control methods

When B is manual, switch the on-site control box and meter box to the manual position. The on-off control button, potentiometer, and frequency meter on the field control box are used to control the meter. The weighing meter displays the instantaneous and cumulative quantities of the materials. . Mainly used for network system failure PLC control system failure or other reasons, need to manually repair the emergency operation under test conditions.

When B is semi-automatic, switch the on-site control box and meter box switch to the automatic position. The on-off control button, frequency meter, and weighing indicator on the field control box can realize the control. The recipe can be set by the weighing meter. Automatically adjust the dosage and display the instantaneous and cumulative amounts of material. Mainly used when no upper control is required.

B automatic, the instrument box switch to the linkage position, the upper computer control the start and stop of the belt, dynamic display of the amount of material, belt running status, a variety of alarm instructions, the amount of ingredients by the host computer in accordance with the process requirements Setting, can collect and process the weighing signal and switch status from each batching control circuit, realize the whole system of belt weigher feeding, weighing detection, material quantity adjustment, automatic control of selecting and switching the bunker and other ingredients process . At this point, the on-site manual control system does not work and is completely operated through the central control room.

3, start and stop the automatic operation system

Four ways: sequence start, sequence stop, emergency stop, simultaneous start

B sequence start: used for the system's initial startup or system restart after the sequence is stopped. The sequence start function can control the feeding equipment participating in the batching to start at a certain time interval according to the running direction of the belt to ensure that the material head can be aligned.

B. Stopping in sequence: It is used in occasions where it is desired to stop for a long time. This ensures that the materials on the conveyor belt are transported cleanly, the belt is in the material state, and the tail alignment can be ensured.

B. Emergency stop: For emergency situations where all equipment involved in the batching stops immediately.

B is started at the same time: for restart after an emergency stop, it can make the system run down from the last “breakpoint” as if nothing had happened.

Note: It is not possible to click any of these four buttons in a random order and must be operated as required.

4, the amount of material control

B When a certain amount of material required to determine the ratio, as a set value into the host computer, the network transmitted to the weighing instrument. The material falls on the weighing belt and its weight is detected by the load cell, and the feedback voltage signal (0-30mV) of the material flow (measurement value) is obtained to the weighing control instrument and calculated to become the PV current value, and then output by the PID operation. The ~20mA control signal is sent to the frequency converter to change its U/F output value, thereby changing the belt speed to control the amount of material and achieve automatic batching.

B material ratio control: The system feeding task comes from the upper computer's proportioning input and calculation to control, that is, various raw materials, process parameters input into the computer, the computer directly to each material to set and match the ratio of coordination.

B automatic dumping control: the same material is installed in several silos (such as concentrate powder), only part of silo feeding is used in the production, and it is required to be in a feeding silo (No material, blocking material, mechanical failure, etc.), the control system automatically starts a silo feeding system that satisfies the conditions and does not participate in the batching according to the program setting.

B. Automatic adjustment of the fuel flow value: When the equipment is shut down, since the total amount of concentrate powder decreases one by one with the silo, the program automatically gradually reduces the amount of fuel to be discharged to ensure that the original ratio does not change.
