Case Study: Clinker Production Monitoring

Clinker Monitoring

Challenges:

  • An S&P 500 supplier of aggregates and heavy building materials needed a better way to monitor its production of clinker, the primary component in the manufacturing of cement. Cement production reports are critical to understanding how the plant is performing, especially how the calculated yield compares with the measured total.
  • But traditionally, compiling these reports is a time-consuming and cumbersome process for the company’s supply chain and engineering personnel. That’s because plant personnel must manipulate spreadsheet analyses to filter out poor-quality clinker and times when the plant is not in production due to an outage.
  • Additionally, different types of clinker require different production calculations. Due to the complexity of calculations performed in Excel spreadsheets, there is a high risk of errors in the reports. The company needed to save engineering time and ensure consistency when generating these important reports.
