Steel Industry
With our partner Steel Sim VR we provide training simulators and HIL simulators for the steel industry. Our portfolio includes training simulators for the convertor bays, casting bays, electric arc furnace cranes and coil ware houses.
Training Simulators
For Steel Sim VR we develop the physics engines. Steel Sim VR combines these physics engines with the most advanced and high-immersion environments. The end result is a scalable training simulator for safer, faster, and more efficient crane operator training.
HIL Simulators
Our physics engines can be coupled with PLC’s to test the control software. This way of testing is also know as hardware-in-the-loop simulation. It is used by companies like Tata Steel to test the next generation of equipment for steel manufacturing. Controllab provides HIL simulators for a wide variety of equipment:
- Ladle cranes
- Coil cranes
- EAF cranes
- Continuous casting machines
Our simulators can be coupled to most modern PLC’s. We have a lot of experience with Bachmann, Siemens, Beckhoff and Rockwell. With the simulator coupled you can test:
- Interlocking arrangements
- Convertor feeding
- Autonomous operation
- Failures
- and more
