The new atrac® 2 is now available.

March 5, 2024

The new atrac® 2 is now available.


Extended process model with four adaptation parameters for realistic prediction of the stretch-reduction process. Every mathematical model is based on simplifications of the modeled physical process. Adequate adaptation parameters must be available in order to adapt the model precisely to reality. atrac® 2 is equipped with the necessary number of adaptation parameters. Accordingly, precise precalculation of the process, exactly adjusted process control and good rolling results are possible.


Highest numerical stability. A complex process model requires intelligent numerical solution methods that are fast and reliable. New procedures in atrac® 2 ensure maximum safety in the calculations. Substitute calculations are avoided.


Versatile optimization of the speed curve against overloading, tube rupture and internal polygon formation. The design of the static speed curve determines load distribution, end losses, tube rupture, roll wear and internal polygon formation. With atrac® 2, the speed curve can be adapted to specific problems. Solution schemes that can be combined with each other are offered for this purpose, but a 'free' design of the speed curve is also possible. In each case, the process model determines the physically sensible solution.


Special control variants to reduce the maximum motor load and prevent tube rupture. The dynamic loads during process control play a decisive role in the load distribution and the tensile stress curve, particularly in the phases of end control and dynamic wall thickness control. New control methods in atrac® 2 ensure that the maximum load and maximum tensile stresses are reduced.


Dimension-specific adjustment of the process model. A complete division of the production program into separate, arbitrarily detailed dimension fields makes it possible to adjust calculation and process parameters very precisely. At the same time, the consistency of the parameters always remains in view in the rolling program overview.


Further optimizations in atrac® 2:


Process simulation for each shell for individual optimization.


Improvements to smartTEC and smartLTC for maximum good tube length.


Improved evaluation of measurement data. And much more.




Achieving material savings even faster and more reliably

June 5, 2023

A new, self-learning optimization algorithm improves the tube thickened end control of the atrac® smart control for stretch-reducing mills.


In the case of frequently unavoidable larger wall thickness deviations in the area of the shell ends, the setting of the thickened end control must almost always be actually adapted. In the past, the operator had to perform this task until the automatically adapting thickened end control was introduced. This operation mode carried out the operator's working method, using data storage for the tube sequence and a defined optimization algorithm to achieve a better result that was above all independent of the operator.


In fact, the task of adapting the thickened end control to the current rolling situation is a complex optimization task: by selectively varying several interdependent parameters, an optimum (shortest possible end losses) must be achieved as quickly as possible under specified boundary conditions.


A new improved optimization method solves this task perfectly. For this purpose, the currently valid relation of the parameters (= the formulation of their dependence on each other) is used to execute the variation of several parameters simultaneously, instead of separately and successively, thus minimizing the number of optimization steps. The relation of the parameters is first specified and then automatically optimized with help of practical results. The relation (depending on the rolling situation) is stored and reused together with successful parameter combinations. In this way, a faster, self-learning optimization algorithm for multiple optimization parameters is implemented, another step in the permanent further development of the atrac® system.




LTC (Local Thickness Control)

May 13, 2023

Newly developed and already proven in production use is the automatically adapting local wall thickness control smart LTC (Local Thickness Control) as an integral part of the smart control of the atrac® system. Local wall thickness deviations are the changes in the average wall thickness related to the individual tube cross-section over the length of the rolling stock. This is made up of various parts: a trend that is similar from tube to tube, individual deviations that differ from tube to tube, and measurement data errors. Due to the complex composition of these local deviations, it is difficult to adapt a pre-control using the measurement data of the pre-tube based on the measurement data of the rolled tube. A newly developed algorithm now performs this task perfectly and automatically. The smart LTC thus supplements the atrac® smart control with the self-adapting TEC (Thickened End Control) and MTC (Main Thickness Control).

NEW: The next development stage in the process control of stretch-reducing mills: atrac® smart control

December 04, 2018
<b><i>atrac</b></i>® smart control - the next development stage in the process control of stretch-reducing mills

In rolling mills, we repeatedly come up against the problem that the operator inputs for the parameters for controlling the crop ends and thus also the result depend strongly on the respective operator.


We re-analysed the problem and chose a completely new approach for our system. That's how atrac® smart control originated.


atrac® smart control can work without any operator intervention. In the course of a rolling process, it constantly compares the results obtained with the set rolling parameters and adapts them, if necessary, until the thickened ends are minimal or the mill has reached the physical limits.

Also taken into account is the protection against material tearing and other critical situations in the rolling mill, therefore: "it will be optimised to the limit".


The best results are stored at the end of the rolling lot and will be reused as the starting parameter for comparable production lots in the future. Then the self-regulation will continue.


Therefore, the problems that have occurred in the past will no longer occur.


The enthusiastic reaction of our customer confirms it: atrac® smart control is a great system, it delivers excellent results!


You can find more information in this short description. For further inquiries, we look forward to your contact.

Engels Informatik delivers atrac® to Rohrwerk Maxhütte

September 28, 2017
Logo Rohrwerk Maxhütte

After the first success in Asia, the first atrac® automation system has now started operations in Germany.


Only three months ago, Engels Informatik GmbH received an order from the Bavarian Rohrwerk Maxhütte GmbH for the supply and installation of the automation system atrac® - now the system is already used for production. The advantages of quality and cost of pipe production are achieved.


The high-quality tube manufacturer was convinced by the innovative and low-cost system. Fast delivery and a short commissioning time were the decisive arguments.


The system of the mill manufacturer used until now in the production plant in Sulzbach-Rosenberg has been replaced by the atrac® system in a seamless transition within a few days, without any downtime for the Maxhütte production.


Thanks to the atrac®, the steeped in tradition tube rolling mill will achieve an even better quality of the final product, with optimal utilisation of the raw material and thus will be able to even better maintain its ultimate goal of "seamless quality".


Rohrwerk Maxhütte GmbH belongs to the Max Aicher group of companies, which is wholly-owned by the Aicher family. The company devolops reliable and sustainable solutions since 1952 and reacts to customer requirements in the short term.


Engels Informatik is pleased to be able to enter into a close partnership with the Rohrwerk Maxhütte, which will help to integrate practical insights into steel pipe production into the future system versions.


Engels Informatik GmbH was founded by Thomas Engels in 1995 in Mönchengladbach, Germany. The company's strength lies in providing design, implementation, and operation of secure, highly-available systems that are directly incorporated worldwide into customers' production processes.

atrac® is the product of Engels Informatik GmbH.
