Industrial automation systems improve business productivity and financial results. Such systems are usually procured as a capital expenditure designed to meet a set of requirements that, if delivered, should produce a return on investment (ROI) sufficient to justify the expenditure. The problem is, however, as capital projects have finite budgets, the set of capabilities implemented is often limited.

It’s a growing problem for many countries around the world: used car tyres piling up as authorities struggle to find effective disposal solutions. Heating and power plants can help solve the problem by burning tyres and other solid materials, creating energy for use in households and industry, including cement production.

Orient Cement shares how the installation of two hydraulic roller press systems supported the efficiency and sustainability objectives of their Karnataka plant.

Cement plant operators around the world know the importance of keeping maintenance time and costs to a minimum, while running at maximum efficiency. Plants with the SF™ and the Multi-Movable™ Cross-Bar® coolers can now use a new type of grate that reduces power consumption and simplifies maintenance.

As cement producers continually seek reduced energy consumption and lower maintenance costs, two emerging trends are changing the face of cement production: the use of grinding stations that support variable feed materials and more widespread use of vertical roller mills (VRMs). Cement producers in India, Nepal and Bangladesh demonstrate the success of using VRMs.

Clinker is the most expensive and carbon-intensive ingredient in cement. Optimizing cement’s clinker factor has therefore become a key target for cement companies looking to reduce their carbon emissions – as well as support their bottom line. At Holcim Germany’s cement plant in Höver, a modern automated sample preparation system is providing the foundation for an efficient and consistent process that delivers optimal product quality with lower environmental footprint.

Safety is critical in any pyro process. Incorrect or inadequate monitoring of explosive gases can create unsafe working environments, endangering plant employees. It may also damage or destroy costly machinery, resulting in long-term production shutdowns.

Industries across the planet are stepping up environmental efforts, all while keeping an eye on the bottom line – and cement plants are no exception to this trend. Many cement plants are looking to minimise their environmental footprint through the use of alternative fuels, such as tyres, and while this can be environmentally beneficial, the higher sulphur content of these alternative fuels results in substantial challenges.

China Resources Cement beats unique difficulties of waste incineration with a new pyro co-processing facility based on the Fuller HOTDISC® system.

The At-line container lab is a complete laboratory solution, providing safe and superior analytical performance.

For cement plant operators, the analysis of kiln-inlet-gas-data can play a fundamental role in optimising safety and product quality; reducing down time and operating costs; and limiting harmful emissions. Fuller is recognised as a market leader in the development of gas analysis equipment and its proven KilnLoq system has been designed and built to provide optimum reliability and performance in high temperature and high dust operating environments. It is well documented that extractive gas analysis, using gases sampled from the kiln inlet, is the most accurate method of monitoring kiln processes. Fuller’s KilnLoq system, with its unique one pipe probe, generates continuous gas analysis data that enables kiln operators to identify and deal with issues before they impact on the production process.

Turn up the loudspeakers and make yourself comfortable.The cement plant of the future is first created in cyberspace. At a pace no one would have thought possible just a few years ago.

Fuller has designed a split inner oil seal for grinding rollers that significantly reduces seal replacement downtime and helps ensure higher ATOX® mill availability. The split seal can be replaced inside the mill, without removing the grinding rollers. View an animation film demonstrating conversion from old seals to new split seals and in-mill replacement of new seals.

View our animation demonstrating how the split pin works. Fuller has designed a split pin that makes it easier to dismantle the torque rod of an ATOX® mill when doing maintenance on rollers and replacing bearing and oil seals.

Watch the film telling about the construction of the Holcim plant in St. Genevieve. Showing the process' from engineering to project planning to manufacturing and the construction of the plant. The construction of the Holcim plant were a greenfield project that should produce 12.000 tonnes of clinkers a day.

The Fuller Service Projects team (CSP) took over customer support after installation of a new production line and helped Titan gauge and address priorities.
