Cement Grinding, Packing & Dispatch
Finished-product operations connect clinker and additive feeding, closed-circuit grinding, cement silos, bag packing, and bulk or bagged dispatch. VITECH integrates weigh feeders, mills, separators, fans, packers, weighbridges, and logistics equipment into control sequences by product grade and dispatch route. Production, silo inventory, weighing, and order-status data are linked to support operation from proportioning through shipment.
1. Clinker & Additive Feeding
Clinker Receiving & Feeding
Controlling clinker extraction from storage or silos, conveyors, and diverter gates to grinding lines while monitoring level, motor current, and transfer-point blockage.
Gypsum & Additive Dosing
Integrating weigh feeders for gypsum, limestone, pozzolana, or other additives while coordinating ratios by cement recipe and tracking component totalizers.
2. Cement Mill Automation
Grinding Circuit Start & Stop Sequences
Coordinating lubrication, hydraulics, main motor, bucket elevators, separators, fans, and feeding through permissives, with normal and trip shutdown paths based on equipment status.
Mill Load & Grinding Process Monitoring
Acquiring motor power, vibration, bearing temperature, differential pressure, and reject flow while coordinating feed rate with mill load and circuit operating limits.
3. Separator & Ventilation Control
Separator Speed & Material Circulation
Controlling separator speed by VFD according to cement grade and process setpoint while monitoring elevator load, reject flow, and air-slide status in the recirculation loop.
Fans, Airflow & Differential Pressure
Coordinating mill fans, dampers, and bag filters from airflow, mill differential pressure, and filter pressure while interlocking pulse cleaning and collected-dust transport.
4. Finished Cement Silos
Silo Level & Filling Sequences
Integrating radar level measurement, high-level switches, distribution valves, and air slides while selecting silos by cement grade, available capacity, and filling-route status.
Aeration, Discharge & Material-Flow Control
Controlling blowers, aeration valves, and extraction equipment for packing or bulk routes while monitoring pressure, flow switches, and silo-bridging conditions.
5. Packing Line Automation
Packer & Bag-Weighing Integration
Connecting rotary packers, empty-bag feeding, and checkweighers while managing weight setpoints, bag counters, product identification, and reject signals.
Conveyors, Rejects & Fault Handling
Synchronizing bag conveyors, cleaners, detectors, and reject conveyors while handling bag jams, missing bags, or downstream stops through sectional interlocks.
6. Bulk Loading, Palletizing & Dispatch
Bulk Loading & Weighbridge Integration
Controlling loading spouts, valves, blowers, and dust extraction by dispatch order while exchanging truck identity, target weight, actual weight, and loading completion with the weighbridge.
Palletizing, Warehouse & Dispatch Data
Coordinating robots or palletizers, stretch wrappers, and warehouse conveyors while linking product codes, quantities, pallet status, and dispatch sequences with production data.
