Automated control system for anode movement for the nickel electrolysis department

Task

Client

Kola MMC, Monchegorsk, Russia

The system provides automated accounting of the arrival and movement of anodes within the mining and metallurgical complex, namely: • arrival of new anodes at the warehouse; • movement of anodes within the workshop; • anode maintenance operations in repair areas; • decommissioning of anodes; • reading of anode codes to check their location in a specific area; • recording of the number of anodes accepted for maintenance and serviced; • recording of rejected anodes in maintenance areas with automated attachment of notes on the types of incidents/reasons for rejection and photographs; • removal of lost tags from circulation and updating of tags in case of cap replacement (cloning of the identifier); • maintenance of an aggregate log to record information about operations performed with the anode (date when the frame or bag was replaced, who replaced it, etc.); • tracking the service life of the diaphragm bag (recording the bag's mileage); • periodic generation of reports; • viewing reports; • assigning tasks for the removal/replacement of anodes in baths to TSD operators.

Project features

The objects of automation are insoluble anodes, numbering more than 30,000 pieces.
