Optimized plant logistics and automatic material handling
Unmanned scrap-optimization yards, blooms or slabs managed by automatic cranes, and automated stockyards to handle finished products have been developed by Danieli for safe, efficient plant operation.
A modern, safe, and competitive steel plant requires automated operation and handling, from the arrival of the metallics as scrap or proler to finished bundles or coils, tracking it through the whole production plant.
Danieli intelligent plant logistics systems adopt the best strategies for crane missions, with fewer operators.
Fully automated yards are used for scrap management, in particular to sort and classify the raw material. Automatic and semi-automatic cranes are used to unload the scrap from carriers (trucks or wagons), to move it in the scrap bay to the location assigned for that specific category, and to load the selected scrap into the furnace. For automatic scrap management please refer to Danieli Automation Q-SYM2 advanced, unmanned scrap-optimization and management system, and to Danieli Centro Recycling in-line shredders, shears and separation lines for scrap densification, scrap cleaning and chemical control.

The intermediate stores for billets, blooms, or slabs are also managed by automatic cranes, without on-board operators, with just a small team supervising remotely, thus safely, in a pulpit.
Finally, automatic cranes or automated stockyards handle finished products such as bar bundles or coils, reducing the need of personnel, hence improving safety for floor operations.
Automatic yards, together with warehouse management systems, improve plant efficiency and reduce operating expenditure.
