Optimize your finish mill

The cement industry is one of the most energy-intensive manufacturing sectors in the world. Using real-time particle size analysis in the finish mill to monitor the cement final grade translates directly into electricity cost savings by reducing overgrinding.

Reduce overgrinding
Overgrinding represents a substantial problem in milling, due mainly to the use of low throughput off-line particle size characterization methods.

Save time in changeover
Cement finish mills can take some time to reach steady state after cement type changeover.

Maximize throughput
By reducing overgrinding, and producing an in-specification, more consistent yet coarser final grade, throughput can be increased typically by several percent.

Reduce energy consumption
Cement production is highly energy intensive, where savings can have economic and environmental benefits.
