Production Reliability for Cement Industry

Cement production is among the most intense of all manufacturing procedures. The creation of Portland and Masonry cement involves chemicals like silicates, aluminates, and aluminoferrites, which can merge to generate a large amount of fine particles.

This can pose substantial challenges for the equipment used in production and handling. The demanding working conditions, coupled with elevated temperatures, lead to an accelerated degradation of rotating parts, posing a risk of early breakdown.

The operation and upkeep of assets in a cement facility pose significant challenges due to the following reasons:

The average machine age in a cement plant is at least 30-40 years.
Finding the right expertise to maintain them consistently is challenging.
Remote locations of cement plants make reactive action expensive and delayed.
Every machine – big or small – has the power to bring the whole process to a complete standstill.

Leveraging Predictive Diagnostics as a Service for your cement facility can prevent machinery breakdowns and reduce unexpected downtime, ultimately enhancing cement quality and Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE). Infinite Uptime, with extensive experience in the cement industry, assists plants in improving Plant reliability, safety, and resource utilization through cement plant equipment condition monitoring. With a strategic shift to the Predictive Maintenance model pertinent reliability objectives can be achieved in Cement manufacturing.
