Cement Blending

Normal cement production processes are based on producing and storing goods in the expectation of them being consumed and in manufacturing terms, this is usually characterised as a ‘Push’ principle. The ‘Manufacturing Push’ principle can be an inefficient use of both resource and capital, resulting in increased inventory/stock levels and the tying up of cash. Therefore, the Schenck Process MULTICOR® Blending System facilitates the ‘ManufacturingPull’ principle by only producing goods when they are ordered – no need for the cement manufacturer to store blended production in the expectation of consumption.

Mixing according to the “Just in time” principleA rotating measuring wheel mixes the main components and additives directly in the MULTICOR® S master according to the Coriolis principle. No separate mixer is required, and any mixture can be produced. This saves costs that would otherwise be incurred by using intermediate transport technology and silos.
