Practice of Unmanned Transformation of Dry Coal Shed Stacker for Blast Furnace in Ironmaking Plant
Before the renovation of the dry coal shed stacker for the sixth blast furnace in the ironmaking plant,it was operated on-site by drivers.The surrounding environment was very harsh,with cold winter and hot summer,and a lot of dust.The latest wireless communication technology and video signal intelligent analysis technology,combined with specific algorithms,were used to realize the unmanned transformation of dry coal shed stacker for the sixth blast furnace.After the renovation,the stacker can intelligently identify the height of the material pile and the material bin,stack materials on its own,and automatically walk or stop unloading when the material is full,eliminating the communication link between the central control operator and the driver,greatly improving work efficiency.The stacker driver is free from the"3D work environment"of"hardship,dirt,and fatigue".At the same time,it completely solves the risk of single person and single position operation for drivers.
