It uses a series of belt-weighers to accurately establish the amount of material, which enters the plant and determines the ratio between sand, aggregates and silt output. If the plant is running at below optimal utilization where weightings and output are unbalanced against set targets, or failing to maximize on production capacity, the plant will respond to address the issue itself in real time by, for example, by adjusting the feed rates.
At the center of Intelligent Plant is OptiMax technology, the latest addition to CDE CORE - an innovative range of technology solutions developed to give customers greater control of their plant. CORE uses automation and sensors to monitor and enhance productivity, minimize downtime, automate processes and lower operating costs while maximizing profitability.
CDE also launched the Combo™ in a move set to revolutionize the wet processing industry. The patented Combo™ - the world's first all-in-one wet processing plant - encompasses five processes: feeding, sizing, sand washing, stockpiling and complete integrated water management - a first for the industry and an important innovation to address a challenge faced by all customers of wet processing systems.
