Clinker Silo Greece

At our client site at a cement plant in Greece, knowing the exact fill level 24/7 is key to enable the plant manager to take the right decisions. The clinker silo acts as storage and buffer area between kiln and mill.
Thus, knowing both free capacity and remaining stock is important for a smooth management of upstream and downstream production. With the indurad iSilo solution, the client has this information available at all times. In addition, current dead stock in the silo is finally visible and thus can be taken into account to calculate current available capacity and to take corrective measures like wall cleaning. The indurad radar solution manages to scan where other technologies fail: high temperatures beyond 100°C, dusty environment, and moisture from the material. The sensor requires no regular cleaning or recalibration.
