The method includes providing a computer model for producing the desired metal workpiece from the flat metal product in a processing procedure, the processing procedure including processing step on the flat metal product by a processing device, receiving technical data record characterizing the flat metal product, at least part of the data of the technical data record having been recorded during the production of the flat metal product, passing the technical data record to the input of the computer model, based on the passing of the technical data record, receiving a model value for an operating parameter of the processing device from the output of the computer model, producing the desired metal workpiece by controlling the processing procedure, the control of the processing procedure including a controlling of the processing device to perform the processing step on the flat metal product using the operating parameter set to the model value.

Production of a desired metal workpiece from a flat metal product

A steel strip with a plurality of markers and a method for marking a steel strip with material properties is provided. The method comprises measuring material properties of the steel strip at a plurality of discrete strip positions. A plurality of markers are applied to the strip edge at the strip positions, each marker from the plurality of markers containing a material identifier relating to the measured material properties at the respective strip position of the marker.
