Abstract
A method and a device for operating an installation of a primary industry, particularly a continuous casting and rolling installation, using a computer system. Products assigned to different production orders are produced in the installation, and a production plan is generated using method steps for order selection, pre-planning, planning and optimization.
Claims15
Method for operating an installation of a basic industry, using a computer system, wherein products assigned to different production orders are produced in the installation, and wherein a production plan is generated using method steps comprising:
- a) generating an initial production plan from a plurality of production orders;
- b) generating a sequence of the production orders stored in the production plan while taking into account process-related restrictions, including process-related cost, to which the installation and the production orders are subject;
- c) generating an executable production plan that takes into account the process-related restrictions to which the installation is subject;
- and
- d) optimizing the executable production plan generated.
Device for operating an installation of a basic industry, wherein products assigned to different production orders are produced in the installation, comprising a computer system configured to generate an initial production plan from a plurality of production orders, to generate a sequence of the production orders stored in the production plan, to generate an executable production plan that takes into account process-related restrictions, including process-related cost, to which the installation is subject, and to optimize the generated executable production plan.
