Abstract
A dynamic production planning method for a continuous casting plant for casting a strand with a production system which has a predefined production plan, which method includes comparing target production parameters with actual production parameters. If the actual production parameters deviate from the target production parameters, a strand image is created on the basis of actual production parameters. With the aid of the calculated strand image, a check is carried out within the predefined production plan and, if possible, a new production plan is created. If no solution can be found from the predefined production plan, the strand image is transmitted to a production planning system. The production planning system creates a new production plan from all available orders on the basis of a predefined optimization criterion. The new production plan is subsequently transmitted to the production system.
