ECONOMICAL SOLUTIONS FOR THE CEMENT INDUSTRY

SPECIALIST IN CEMENT SINCE 1935 BEUMER was founded in Beckum, Germany, in 1935 as a manufacturing company for conveyor equipment, and its first order came from the cement and lime industry in Westphalia. Since then, products and solutions have been manufactured worldwide for the cement industry. Today, BEUMER Group is an experienced, internationally active operator in the cement industry and has the right solution ready for any challenge in conveyor, loading, silo, filling, palletising or packaging technology.

SYSTEMS YOU CAN RELY ON A bag of cement has a lengthy journey behind it before it arrives at the building site. Between being quarried, processed and supplied as the finished product, the material passes through many different stages. At each of these stages, special systems are in place to ensure the process is smooth, economical and environmentally friendly: systems from BEUMER Group. Systems you can rely on - whether the job involves conveying, loading or packaging cement. BEUMER GROUP -MADE DIFFERENT For us, this means creating a long-term perspective based on top quality,...

CONVEYING TECHNOLOGY ECONOMICAL AND SAFE Every transportation scenario offers new challenges: sometimes it involves moving coarse-grained material through rugged terrain from the quarry to the factory grounds, or hot materials from a kiln cooling system to a silo. For all of these applications there is an ideal solution: the economical transport technologies provided by the BEUMER Group.

CONVEYING TECHNOLOGY INDIVIDUAL TRANSPORT The BEUMER Group has been supplying systems and plant for transporting bulk and loose goods around the world. And when it comes to the cement industry, too, BEUMER has the right solution for all transport tasks. By producing runs with horizontal curves, e.g. for transporting limestone from the quarry to the cement works, the BEUMER Group has created trend-setting systems. The same goes for transporting hot materials, like clinker transportation for instance. If the task involves large volumes to be transported, or transport over difficult terrain,...

TROUGHED BELT CONVEYORS Open troughed belt conveyors transport bulk goods for cement manufacture quickly across large distances and rough terrain, e.g. from the quarry to the cement plant. The narrow curve radii and long centre distances permit large mass flows, particularly where heavy and solid materials are involved. This makes BEUMER troughed belt conveyors every bit as economical as they are flexible, and they pay for themselves quickly thanks to the low investment cost. The efficiency of the troughed belt conveyors can be increased still further thanks to energy recovery on downward...

CONVEYING TECHNOLOGY APRON CONVEYORS High temperatures, complex configurations and overcoming extreme heights - hot materials such as cement clinker can be transported safely and at low cost using the BEUMER Group’s apron conveyors with extra heat resistance. These systems use sturdy double-sidebar chains as the traction element. This keeps the costs of construction to a reasonable level. Different versions can be used to overcome inclinations of up to 60° at a speed of 0.3 m/s. BELT APRON CONVEYOR The belt apron conveyor from the BEUMER Group make it possible to transport hot materials...

BUCKET ELEVATORS FOR MAXIMUM VERTICAL LIFTING BELT BUCKET ELEVATORS BEUMER Group belt bucket elevators provide vertical transport for bulk goods ranging in consistency from powder to small pieces to a height of up to 200 metres. These are ideally suited for feeding a pre-warming tower or a raw meal or cement silo with powdered raw materials. Different bucket widths are available to accommodate required transport volumes. And special high-performance belts and systems that minimise the risk of belt damage ensure a long service life and high availability for this bucket elevator. HEAVY-DUTY...

CONVEYING TECHNOLOGY SYSTEM TECHNOLOGY FOR ALTERNATIVE FUELS What technology provides better control over the huge energy costs incurred in the cement manufacturing process? Energy costs still account for about 40 percent of the cost of production. The BEUMER Group’s answer is a series of system solutions that properly dispose of waste and secondary fuels and convert them into valuable energy at the same time. Old tyres, shredded tyres, plastics and other oil-based mineral products -large volumes of alternative fuels are available at low cost and can be safely disposed of using the...

STORAGE TECHNOLOGY RELIABLE AND EVEN Whether in the open or in covered halls, raw materials in stockpiles with blending bed equipment must be properly mixed and consolidated. This is why the BEUMER spreader reliably builds up the pile so that its cross-section has the largest possible number of layers of identical material. A BEUMER bridge scraper then helps to achieve the maximum homogenisation effect when reclaiming material from the front of the pile.
