The Design of Rolling Steel Computer Aided Manufacturing System Based on Internet

Abstract

The production of rolling steel is a complicated process which includes management of production operations and production process. The former includes costs accounting, procurement plan of raw materials and auxiliary materials and quality control. The latter includes devices, technology and production rhythm of iron making, steel making, casting and rolling. Nowadays, the departments of these two have adopted the computer managing system to improve the efficiency of management. But the concept of collective design of CIMS is not considered thus the computer control system and operations management computer system are isolated. Furthermore, resources are not shared and information is not integrated among the systems thus enterprise competitiveness decreases. This paper designs the rolling steel computer aided manufacturing system based on internet and introduces the three levels system structure of CIMS technology strategy as well as the key technology. This study is of great significance not only in the integration of rolling steel production systems and the sharing information, but also in upgrading the steel enterprises, reducing costs and increasing enterprise competitiveness.
