Steel plants face very high investment costs due to the size of their equipment and their long production lines. These investments must provide a return as soon as possible. Important criteria in achieving this include: low operational and maintenance costs and reliable operation without unplanned down-time. Each unplanned event can result in significant income losses. Additionally, every component of the steel production process is required to produce higher volumes of steel year-on-year while maintaining the quality level and satisfying tighter environmental standards. Despite these pressures,...
