Temperature Control in a Continuous Caster

Linear actuators PS-AMS PSL with Profibus DP control the temperature of a continuous casting process. Towards the end of year 2008 the PS Automation GmbH sold 30 PSL202-AMS and two PSL204-AMS all with Profibus DP to a valve manufacturer for the continuous casting plant of the Stahlwerk Bous GmbH in Saarland, Germany. The contractor was the German company Küttner Automation GmbH in Trier.

Application: 

Temperature control in a continuous caster

Requirement:

High process safety due to maximum availability, a precise control response and durability were the key requirements for the actuators.

Solution: 

The actuators of PS Automation GmbH, which were characterized not only by their long life and high reliability, but also guarantee the patented actuator solution PS-AMS of PS Automation an optimum control behavior, were the first choice for use in the plant of the Stahlwerk Bous GmbH.
