A dynamic production planning method for a continuous casting plant for casting a strand with a production system which has a predefined production plan, which method includes comparing target production parameters with actual production parameters. If the actual production parameters deviate from the target production parameters, a strand image is created on the basis of actual production parameters. With the aid of the calculated strand image, a check is carried out within the predefined production plan and, if possible, a new production plan is created. If no solution can be found from the predefined production plan, the strand image is transmitted to a production planning system. The production planning system creates a new production plan from all available orders on the basis of a predefined optimization criterion. The new production plan is subsequently transmitted to the production system.

Dynamic production planning method for continuous casting plants

A production planning system () for a raw materials industry plant (ANL), which determines the production planning data (Pi) thereof and specifies said data to the automation system () of the plant (ANL). A state monitoring system () determines previous and future anticipated states (Z) of components of the plant (ANL). A quality determination system () determines states (Z) of output products (Ai) produced and still to be produced by the plant (ANL) and/or past and future states (Z) of the plant (ANL) as a whole. A maintenance planning system () and/or the production planning system () receive, from the state monitoring system (), the states (Z) of the components of the plant (ANL), determined by the state monitoring system () and, from the quality determination system (), the states (Zand Z) of the output products (Ai) and/or of the plant (ANL) as a whole, determined by the quality determination system (). They consider the data received from the state monitoring system () and from the quality determination system () in the determination of maintenance planning data (W) and/or the production planning data (Pi).
