Cognor orders bar finishing technologies

Polish steelmaker Cognor ordered a Danieli Centro Maskin cand inspection line for its plant in Stalowa Wola, Poland.

The new installation will consist of a fully automated, high-productivity straightening line, a deburring unit and bar handling to process diameters up to 250 mm, and with speeds up to 25 m/min.

The high-efficiency Danieli solutions featuring advanced automation equipment and process control integrated into a user-friendly interface will allow Cognor to benefit up to 15% savings in energy consumption and full line set-up times. Q-Space One will allow real-time remote support from erection and commissioning to plant startup, to continue with after-sale activities, drastically reducing assistance intervention times.

The line is designed for future predictive maintenance through the monitoring and analysis of the data (frequencies, vibrations, temperatures, ...) acquired by the sensors installed across the line, to predict the remaining lifetime of the components, and to set a preventive maintenance service.

The new line will be in operation by the end of 2023.

Since 1970 Danieli Centro Maskin has supplied more than 140 straightening and reeling lines for ferrous and nonferrous materials.
