Liberty steel group / Entire Pass line revamping and process modification of an electrolytic tinning line (2018 / 2020).

For Liberty steel group account, Withindustry followed up of the engineering, and design of some specific electrical and automated technical solutions for an electrolytic Tinning line revamping project.

This project includes new TGBT, replacing of all pass line motors, drives, automation and HMI, a new chrome free passivation pass line, shifting of the main control room, new safety access areas.

The new configuration includes ABB ACS880 drives, PLC Tia S7-1500 and S7-1500F, and a wonderware Archestra HMI. This part has been integrated by the supplier Engie-Fabricom.

Withindustry also defined and followed up detailed engineering of the new chromefree process automation and electrical package, from basic engeneering to commissioning and fine tunning, to meet all specific mechanical suppliers needs, and final user and maintenance expectations.

Withindustry also clarified all safety access zones needs with final user and maintenance, and defined technical specifications for our electrical suppliers to meet this requirements.

Withindustry made the electrical an automation detailed engineering to shift the previous process control room to assemble it with new final check control room. +- 500 IO’s has been transfered through a new Profibus network.

We collaborated with our networked freelance Alstom expert to integrate a Profibus network on existing process HPC0 PLC. This configuration allowed us to use same ET200SP IO cards as for he rest of the installation, waiting for the process PLC to be revamped with Tia S7-1500 PLC (and profinet network).
