Abstract

This paper presents supervisory control of a total molten-metal pouring system to improve the productivity of the factory, the safety of workers, and the quality of the product. Through the pouring processes model, a forward tilting control input was calculated by an adaptive feedforward control system to hold the liquid in the sprue cup at a constant level considering the change effected by the accumulating slag in the ladle. A backward tilting input was obtained by means of the hybrid shape approach applied to suppress the slosh. The supervisory control system reasonably switches from the forward tilting motion to the backward tilting motion by using model predictive control to achieve the accurate poured quantity. The validity of the proposed total control system was demonstrated through experiments.
