INTELLIGENT AUTOMATION FOR STEEL PRODUCTION
DBM develops automation equipment and engineering solutions for steel producers, metallurgical EPC contractors and industrial automation integrators. Our solutions cover Steel Melting Shop, Continuous Casting Shop, Rolling Mill, Cold Rolling and steel rolling engineering projects.
DBM is an independent manufacturer and engineering partner for intelligent equipment used in steel and metallurgical production. We combine industrial robots, machine vision, online measurement, control systems and mechanical equipment to develop application-specific solutions for demanding plant environments.
Our work is organized around five business areas: Steel Melting Shop automation, Continuous Casting Shop automation, Rolling Mill automation, Cold Rolling automation, and Steel Rolling Engineering & Project Services.
Steel producers, steel mill owners, metallurgical EPC contractors, engineering companies and industrial automation integrators.
Measurement, sampling, inspection, marking, counting, material handling, remote operation and selected process-control tasks.
Equipment can be evaluated for connection with existing PLC, HMI, SCADA, MES, weighing, tagging, safety and communication systems.
Send your process description, product specifications, line layout, production cycle, existing control system and target improvement for an application review.
Steel plants require different automation solutions at different production stages. DBM organizes its products and engineering capabilities around five business areas so that plant owners and EPC teams can start from the relevant shop, process or project requirement.
Automation equipment for measurement, sampling, inspection and process support in steel melting shops, including applications around steel ladles, converters and ladle furnaces.
Automation and inspection systems for continuous casting shops, supporting billet identification, surface-quality monitoring, process measurement and production traceability.
Online measurement, inspection, counting, separation, sampling, tagging and material-handling solutions for bar, rebar and wire rod rolling lines.
Automation, inspection, measurement and material-handling solutions for cold rolling and steel-coil production environments.
Engineering, modernization and project-support services for steel rolling lines, including process assessment, equipment integration, automation upgrades and commissioning coordination.
The same steel plant may require different equipment technologies across multiple shops. DBM combines application-specific mechanical equipment, industrial robots, machine vision, sensors, software and control interfaces to address defined production tasks.
Monitor temperature, diameter, speed, length, weight and other process variables with online measurement equipment configured for the application.
Use industrial cameras, lighting, image processing and machine-vision technology for product inspection, position recognition and quality-data collection.
Reduce repetitive or hazardous manual work with robot systems, automatic handling, counting, separation, marking, sampling and process-support equipment.
Coordinate equipment with existing PLC, HMI, SCADA, MES, weighing, tagging, safety and communication systems according to project requirements.
Support equipment testing, field installation, operator training and project handover when included in the agreed scope.
DBM can evaluate individual equipment packages or integrated application systems. The final scope depends on the process, product, plant layout, production cycle, existing equipment and required interfaces.
A reliable automation project starts with the customer’s process and site conditions, not with a generic equipment list. DBM reviews the application, defines the required interfaces and develops the equipment configuration around the production line.
1. Application Review
Review the shop, production process, product range, cycle time, operating method and target improvement.
2. Site and Interface Clarification
Evaluate plant layout, installation space, utilities, mechanical interfaces, PLC/HMI/SCADA/MES requirements and safety conditions.
3. Solution and Engineering Definition
Define the equipment package, working sequence, control logic, data flow, manual mode, alarms and project responsibilities.
4. Manufacturing and Testing
Manufacture and test the equipment according to the approved technical requirements and project scope.
5. Installation and Commissioning
Coordinate installation, functional testing, online or hot commissioning and interface verification when included in the contract.
6. Training and Handover
Provide operating guidance, maintenance information, training and project handover documents according to the agreed scope.
DBM is an independent manufacturer and engineering partner based in Dalian, China. We specialize in intelligent mechanical equipment, machine vision and online measurement solutions for steel and metallurgical applications.
We develop equipment around the customer’s process, plant layout, production rhythm, safety requirements and control interfaces.
Our solutions can combine mechanical equipment, robots, sensors, machine vision, measurement systems, software and control components..
We work with steel producers, EPC contractors and industrial integrators to clarify technical scope, interfaces, testing requirements and responsibilities.
Project support can include testing, site commissioning, operator training and follow-up coordination when included in the agreed scope.
DBM provides application-specific automation equipment and engineering solutions for Steel Melting Shops, Continuous Casting Shops, Rolling Mills and Cold Rolling operations. DBM also supports steel rolling engineering and project services.
DBM can provide equipment packages, automation modules and project-support services. The final scope depends on the customer’s process, equipment, interfaces, site conditions and contract requirements. Application review is recommended before defining whether the project is an equipment package, an integrated system or a broader engineering service.
DBM can evaluate PLC, HMI, SCADA, MES, weighing, tagging, safety and communication interfaces as part of the project definition. The required protocols, signals and responsibilities should be confirmed during technical clarification.
The most useful information includes the production shop, process description, product specifications, line speed or cycle time, plant layout, equipment photographs, installation position, utilities, existing control system and target improvement.
Installation, commissioning, operator training and after-sales support can be included according to the agreed project scope. The proposal should clearly define FAT, installation, SAT, training, documentation and spare-parts responsibilities.
