Concrete & Cement

iBelt is the base for A-Frame reclaimer automation in cement plants as it measures the volume flow of reclaimed material directly on conveyor belt. Thus the PLC can control cutting depth of the reclaiming wheel and long travel speed of the machine and boom, increasing machine throughput (by about 20%) and reducing overloading of the conveyor as well as chute blockage.

Especially in cement plants, processes are better controlled by volume than tonnage, with the A-Frame reclaimers is being just one example of this.
