Coperion offers diverse solutions for the challenging operating conditions in the cement industry. With more than 80 years of experience in the building materials sector we are experts in developing technologies built for longevity and upgradeability. We look beyond the individual pieces of equipment to how they integrate with the process flow; this enables us to design for serviceability and efficiency throughout the plant. 

The various characteristics of bulk solids, including particle shape, size (aspect ratio), and particle size distribution, along with factors such as roughness, hardness (abrasiveness), and density need to be  taken into account when designing feeding and pneumatic conveying systems. Especially calcium carbonate is prone to varying characteristis depending on the source and production process. Therefore, they require individual material handling solutions.

Coperion offers innovative technologies for the efficient operations of power generation plants. We upgrade existing technology when appropriate, and enhance the performance of processes – even when using equipment from other manufacturers.

Manufacturers of wallboard often include a range of materials to modify the board's properties, resulting in a more efficient and potentially cost-effective product. Such advancements demand adaptable process solutions that consistently and efficiently achieve the desired outcomes, precisely as specified. Coperion provides comprehensive solutions, including grinding, weighing, calcining, conveying, feeding, and mixing, to meet these needs.

The steel industry's energy-intensive and highly competitive landscape has heightened the emphasis on the costs and environmental effects of steel production. For many years, we have collaborated with steelmakers to enhance their operations, leveraging our extensive process expertise in the steel industry. Coperion offer innovative technologies for direct injection of carbon and lime into the furnace.
