Answers

1. trueSPEED is a laser based non contact type measurement system for accurate and reliable measurement of velocity and length of the material/ stock in an industrial environment.
   
    

2. It is a Yard Management System which locates & retrieves slabs/ coils/ sheets and keeps track of logistics and thus satisfies the delivery time of customer.
   
    

3. optiBOF is a mathematical model based process optimisation system which has been developed and implemented in TATA STEEL Basic Oxygen Furnace for superior quality of steel, optimisation of addition of flux and increase in productivity.
   
    

4. tracQ is a slab quality parameter tracking system developed for on-line slab grade/ re-grade decision.
    
    

5. optiCROP is an image based system through which you can optimise your mill output by cutting the exact part of back and front end of a slab/coil.
    
    

6. CALM stands for Computer Aided Laboratory Management whereby chemical analysis of samples collected at various stages of steel making is integrated on real time basis and results made available speedily to various stations for taking decision.
    
    

7. optiTHERM is a computer optimized reheat furnace control system developed to control heating process in a rolling mill ensuring product quality improvement and significant reduction in energy
