This work is devoted to the research and development of an automated control system for the technological process of leading of long sleeves. Long sleeves are an important and promising direction for the development of industrial and metallurgical industries. Now there is a wide variety of designs and sizes of sleeves. However, there are four main methods of their manufacture: mandrel, half-mandrel, without mandrel and on flexible mandrels. The article presents an analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of each of them. Mastering and improving the technology of manufacturing sleeves on flexible mandrels is the main way to increase the volume and speed of sleeve production. The results of mathematical modeling of the automated system are presented. The simulation was performed using the ViSim software tool. The control object is a lead melting bath. The temperature of lead is accepted as an adjustable technological parameter. The method of passive experiment was used to build an automated control system.
