Hyundai Steel recently introduced robots into the inspection and packaging processes of its wire rod products, accelerating the intelligent transformation of its production lines.

In November of this year, Hyundai Steel launched the first automated tagging robot system for wire rods in the South Chungcheong Province at its special steel plant in Dangjin. M100-27P Grain oriented electrical steel, This system automatically attaches labels containing key information such as product history and specifications to finished wire rods on the wire rod outbound conveyor line.

The company stated that this move aims to promote unmanned and automated operation in the shipping process, reduce issues such as steel type confusion caused by manual labeling errors, and improve operational safety.

The system consists of assembly robots, installation robots, and supporting equipment such as conveyors and fixtures. The assembly robots are responsible for attaching the fixing clips to the printed product labels. M100-27P Grain oriented electrical steel, After the wire rod is placed into the fixture along the conveyor line, the installation robot automatically scans the product information, identifies the correct installation position, and completes the label fixing.

Hyundai Steel has been collaborating with Italian steel automation company BM Group Polytec since last year, completing the system design over approximately two years. M100-27P Grain oriented electrical steel, By clearly separating robotic work areas from manual operation areas, the system ensures efficient and safe operation.

A company representative stated that replacing previously manual processes with robots has significantly improved operational efficiency, and the company will continue to expand its investment in robotics in line with global steel industry trends.

Meanwhile, Hyundai Steel is also promoting smart manufacturing in multiple stages, including production, testing, and shipping. In July of this year, the company put inspection robots into use at its Incheon plant to automate the inspection of the dimensions and surface temperature of high-temperature beam billets.
