In 2024, VR MASTER was entrusted with a major contract by DELI Group, Indonesia, to deliver a complete electrical and drive system for roller conveyors for their new plate mill and water treatment plant.

In mid-June 2022, VR MASTER was awarded a contract to upgrade the automation system of the wire rod mill at Tata Steel Manufacturing (Thailand) – SISCO Plant. The scope of supply included local control cabinets, PLCs with remote I/O, HMI SCADA systems, project management, hardware engineering, PLC and HMI software development, erection and installation, commissioning, training, and production support.

In 2023, VR MASTER assisted our customer in Indonesia in improving power quality at their steel rolling mill plant. The facility utilizes numerous DC and AC converters for variable speed motor control across various applications. Electrical disturbances, such as harmonics generated by these power electronic converters, can lead to equipment failure and operational malfunctions. To address this, our Active Power Filters (APF) were successfully installed, effectively reducing major harmonic orders and enhancing the power factor of the main power supply.

In 2022, VR MASTER was awarded a contract for the water plant automation upgrade project from Tata Steel Manufacturing (Thailand). The scope of supply includes equipment and software provision, engineering, installation, commissioning, and basic training on TIA Portal. The new control system is based on Siemens S7-1500 with remote I/O modules ET200SP. Networking and control are implemented via Profinet, with HMI SCADA PCs including an iBA PC for fast diagnostic monitoring applications.

In December 2021, VR MASTER was awarded an order to upgrade the HMI SCADA PCs and software across 22 units for the three manufacturing plants of Tata Steel Manufacturing (Thailand).

In 2021, VR MASTER was awarded a contract by our valued customer, JS STEEL Thailand, for the supply, installation, and commissioning of 22kV switchgear panels and protection systems for transformer feeders.

In 2021, VR MASTER was awarded a contract for the supply, installation, and commissioning of medium-voltage switchgear panels and power transformers for new rolling mills from Metallic Group.

In 2020, VR MASTER received an order to supply DC drives for upgrading the stand drives of rolling mills at JS STEEL, Thailand. The new drives were installed within the existing cabinets, and commissioning was completed according to the plant’s shutdown schedule.

In 2020, VR MASTER was awarded a contract by Metallic Group, Thailand, for the supply of DC drives panels and DC motors for rolling mills, including commissioning services.

In 2020, VR MASTER was awarded a contract to upgrade the servo drives and motor system for the continuous shears at the BM2 plant of JS STEEL, Thailand.

In 2019, VR MASTER was awarded a contract to supply the DC drives system for the finishing block stand and to modify the HMI/SCADA for integration with the existing automation system at JS STEEL, Thailand.

In 2017, VR MASTER was awarded a contract to upgrade the automation system for the continuous shears, including pinch roll drives, at the BM1 plant of JS STEEL, Thailand.
