Intelligent smelting process, management system: Efficient and intelligent management strategy by incorporating large language model

Abstract

Abstract In the steelmaking industry, enhancing production cost-effectiveness and operational efficiency requires the integration of intelligent systems to support production activities. Thus, effectively integrating various production modules is crucial to enable collaborative operations throughout the entire production chain, reducing management costs and complexities. This paper proposes, for the first time, the integration of Vision-Language Model (VLM) and Large Language Model (LLM) technologies in the steel manufacturing domain, creating a novel steelmaking process management system. The system facilitates data collection, analysis, visualization, and intelligent dialogue for the steelmaking process. The VLM module provides textual descriptions for slab defect detection, while LLM technology supports the analysis of production data and intelligent question-answering. The feasibility, superiority, and effectiveness of the system are demonstrated through production data and comparative experiments. The system has significantly lowered costs and enhanced operational understanding, marking a critical step toward intelligent and cost-effective management in the steelmaking domain.
