Automatic Control System of a D. L. Sintering Machine and its Recent Tendency in Foreign Countries

Abstract

Recently many researches on automatic control system of sintering equipments are put in practice in foreign countries as well as in Japan.
Especially in U. S. A.& U. S. S. R. its progress is remarkable, the author deals with a new automatic control system which has not been found in even foreign countries as well as in Japan.
This equipment is completely different from the ordinary one-man control system which has been misunderstood as the automatic control system to the present.
In Yawata Steel Works since 1956 a study of automatic control system of sintering equipments has been made, which was developed from the new idea and comprized a complete loop type system.
The outline of an actual example thereof and the recent tendency in foreign countries were explained briefly in comparison with the new automatic control system in Japan.
