Cement & Mining

Cement Solutions

From the quarry to the finished product, Ekotek Systems helps you realize safety, efficiency and reliability across all applications by appropriately applying medium voltage (>1.0kV) motors, variable frequency drives, and integration of motor control centers, switchgear products, and automation systems upon your request.

Variable frequency drives (VFDs) are common to cement installations. Used to smoothly start large motors and continuously adjust the rotational speed, VFDs increase the life of mechanical systems, while drastically reducing maintenance and operating costs. Induction and synchronous motors driving crushers, belt conveyors, vertical and ball mills, rotary kilns, and ID fans use VFDs to provide high power, speed control, and low-loss flow control while optimizing the power system.

Ekotek Systems’ general purpose motors are designed for the fine dust and rugged environment of a cement installation thereby reducing the event of motor failure.

Ekotek Systems supplies solutions to the cement industry that provide the foundation for production savings.

Mining Solutions

Extract more value at every stage of your mining operation. Our smart, safe and sustainable production solutions automate mines and processes to increase throughput and lower operating costs – from your extraction site through your processing plant.

Delivering Dependable, Flexible Control

Integrated Architecture, based on the Smart platforms, supports demanding, continuous, discrete and motion applications, while Intelligent Motor Control devices help protect assets and improve motor performance and energy efficiency.

Smart, Safe, Sustainable Production Solutions

Around the country, we are optimizing mining operations by:

  • Increasing personnel safety with autonomous mining solutions and remote control and monitoring of equipment and processes
  • Increasing mineral yield and minimizing process variability through advanced Model Predictive Control (MPC)
  • Optimizing energy use and reducing mechanical equipment wear and tear
  • Helping to ensure a cleaner, safer environment through continuous monitoring and reporting

To get good results needs hard working, but it is not always enough. Keeping track what you have done in the past in order to find better ways in the future, that is what our solutions offer to the mining industry together with our partners we will tune your chances to get the maximum of your business.

Turn Production Data into Actionable Information

Commodities market volatility and extended downturn cycles are driving the mining industry to change the way it operates. Mining companies can better use existing data to improve operational excellence and to:

  • Reduce costs
  • Minimize waste
  • Increase yield
  • Comply with an ever increasing regulatory framework
  • Maintain a strict policy of zero-harm

 

Our team of industry specialists can help you achieve standardized system design to meet these challenges.
