Metallurgy is one of the most complex and resource-intensive industries, where precision, reliability, and efficiency are absolutely critical. At Astana Project, we specialize in designing automation and control systems for metallurgical production, helping businesses optimize their processes, reduce costs, and improve product quality. Our solutions are tailored to meet the unique challenges of this industry — from extreme temperatures and harsh environments to the need for continuous equipment operation.
Why is automation essential in metallurgy?
Modern metallurgical production demands the minimization of human error, strict control over process parameters, and rapid response to changes. We design systems that ensure uninterrupted operation of furnaces, rolling mills, casting lines, and other critical components. Our solutions cover the entire production cycle — from raw material smelting to the delivery of finished products.
Sensor Integration and IoT
We install high-precision sensors for temperature, pressure, vibration, and metal composition, transmitting real-time data. This allows for equipment monitoring and process adjustments on the fly.
Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC)
Our control systems automate complex operations — such as adjusting oxygen supply in blast furnaces or rolling speed — ensuring stability and precision.
SCADA Systems
We implement Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems that provide operators with complete control over production via an intuitive interface, while also collecting data for analysis.
Digital Twins
By leveraging BIM and Industry 4.0 technologies, we create virtual models of metallurgical facilities to predict equipment wear and optimize performance.
Energy Optimization
Our solutions include energy consumption management, which is crucial for energy-intensive processes such as electric arc furnace smelting.
Benefits for Clients
Automation reduces the risk of accidents caused by human error and enhances safety in production. For example, automatic system shutdowns in the event of overheating or gas leaks can prevent disasters. Additionally, our solutions minimize equipment downtime through predictive maintenance — we analyze data and alert you about the need for repairs before breakdowns occur. This directly impacts cost reduction and increases profit margins.
Experience and Adaptability
We understand the specifics of metallurgy — from ferrous to non-ferrous, from small workshops to large plants. Our control systems are adaptable to existing equipment, whether outdated units or the latest technologies, ensuring a smooth transition to automation without production stoppages.
