Gigaton, alcemy, and CemAI – Cement Intelligence, in partnership with World Cement, have released a new white paper titled "From quarry to lorry: how AI is solving cement's biggest production challenges."
What if your crushing circuit could deliver higher throughput, fewer fines, and lower operating costs all while reducing infrastructure demands? In this article, we explore how Komatsu is helping cement and aggregate producers rethink material processing with integrated surface feeder breakers, sizers, and reclaim feeders built for performance, flexibility, and sustainability.
World Cement sat down with Martin Casey, Mineral Products Association (MPA), to discuss the challenges facing the UK cement sector and the policies needed to support its future.
In cement manufacturing operations, reliability is a never ending concern. Equipment is routinely exposed to abrasive dust, vibrations, heat, and continuous operation – conditions that place significant stress on a variety of components. Bearings in particular play a critical role in maintaining uptime and failures often result in unplanned shutdowns, increased maintenance labour, and lost production.
This week's edition of The Weekly Brief brings you the opening of Heidelberg Materials' kiln line in France, insights into the US cement industry's economic forecast, CIMPOR's pioneering electric concrete mixer in Portugal, and TITAN Group's acquisition of Keystone Cement.
Traditional Loss on Ignition testing is vital for cement quality, yet split LOI analysis offers superior process insight. By automating mass loss measurements at specific temperature intervals, modern thermogravimetric systems improve laboratory efficiency, throughput, and data consistency, enabling cement producers to optimize production, ensure regulatory compliance, and drive better decisions.
