2000 TMS Annual Meeting: Exhibitor

VAW Aluminum Technologie GmbH (VAW-ATG), a subsidiary of VAW Aluminum AG, is specialized in tailor-made modernization projects for aluminum smelters. The core competencies of VAW-ATG comprise process modeling, process control and data acquisition/data processing, aluminum and carbon technology, casthouse technology and technical engineering.

The improved version of our Electrolysis Automation System ELAS 2 will be presented. Owing to its new design and improved functions, this process control system for aluminum reduction cells comes in a much smaller, more compact housing and is easier to integrate into existing automation environments. ELAS 2 incorporates a central windows-oriented information system which allows the easy retrieval of all relevant process and production data. The whole range of VAW-ATG's process control know-how will be presented, including training and simulation tools.
