Teruyuki Nakanisi, Yoshio Yoshimura, Tsuneo Seto, Kazushi Baba, Hiroshi Arimitsu, Shuzo Watanabe
Synopsis :
Highly computer-controlled vehicle (HCCV) system was brought into operation in February 1984 between the No. 1 steel making plant and the new billet mill, a wide flange beam mill, at Mizushima Works. Features and purposes of HCCV system are (1) Realization of Perfect Automatization in Material Transportation. Blooms can be automatically received and fed by combining the traverse function of the buggy with that of the receiving and feeding equipment at each station. (2) Control and Assurance of Transportation Sequence by Piecewise Tracking. Blooms are placed in a single tier so that tracking according to the rolling sequence can be ensured. (3) Thorough Pursuit of Heat Energy Saving. The buggy is equipped with a heat-insulation room provided with heat insulating doors capable of minimizing temperature drops during transportation of hot blooms.
