ActiveCAST is Polytec’s advanced automation platform for continuous casting machines, designed to optimize every stage of the casting process, from the ladle turret to the discharge area. The system combines precise process control, intelligent automation, and real-time production tracking to improve product quality, maximize plant availability, and ensure safe and reliable operation.
Suitable for billets, blooms, and slabs, ActiveCAST integrates all key casting functions into a single automation architecture. Advanced algorithms continuously regulate steel levels, casting speed, mold oscillation, and cooling systems while monitoring process conditions to prevent breakouts and ensure consistent casting quality. The platform also manages production tracking, cut optimization, automatic start-up procedures, and marking system integration, providing complete traceability from the ladle to the storage area.
