Avoid downtime with our digital solutions
Since our founder in 1882 discovered the technology behind the horizontal kiln, innovation has been at the core of our company. Today, we continue to use our curiosity and innovative approach to discover new ways to optimise equipment and processes. We are especially active in bringing the advantages of digitalisation to the cement industry.
Our experience in automating cement plants has given us a head start on harnessing the potential of digital technologies. Using IoT (Internet of Things) we make our product portfolio smart and self-learning, and with the equipment connected to the internet you can monitor it remotely or leave the monitoring to one of our service centres.
Gathering performance data from cement plants all over the world gives us the opportunity to adjust the settings for optimal performance at your plant. The data also makes it possible to predict when it is time for maintenance of your equipment. Predictive and prescriptive maintenance help you avoid unscheduled downtime and increase productivity at your plant.
