qontrol maps

Short Desription

In this project, qoncept delivered an extensible raw material management solution to reduce the cost per ton of liquid steel. The system focused on automatically characterizing incoming scrap and other raw materials, and on optimizing charge and alloying recipes based on real-time material properties. With the integration of qontrol maps and its core modules Material Characterization and Charge Optimization, producers gained continuous transparency over chemical composition, metallic yield, and energy demand of raw materials. This enabled data-driven charge mixes, reduced operational costs, and improved resource efficiency. The implementation created measurable savings while laying the foundation for further digitalization steps.
