BlendX-Mill®
BlendX: Advanced and Versatile Quality Control Software
BlendX stands out as a highly versatile and advanced quality control software solution, adaptable to various plant configurations. It can be customized to interface seamlessly with a plant's existing equipment, whether that includes at-line, online, or laboratory analytical instruments, as well as raw material feeding systems.
The software excels in real-time and batch data acquisition, capable of integrating signals from diverse analytical devices and manual data entries from physical laboratories.
BlendX supports standard drivers for a broad range of analytical equipment available in the market, ensuring comprehensive compatibility. Additionally, it features OPC drivers for efficient data exchange with Distributed Control Systems (DCS), facilitating precise ratio control and enhancing overall process integration.
Together with BlendX-Pile and BlendX-CK, one can create a cohesive quality control system that not only addresses immediate production needs but also aligns with broader sustainability goals. By improving process control, reducing waste, and optimizing resource use, BlendX and its modules contribute to more sustainable and economically efficient manufacturing operations.
Elevate Plant's performance with BlendX Quality Control
Implementing BlendX brings a dramatic boost to your plant's quality control performance. Its advanced Model Predictive Control (MPC) engine meticulously monitors and predicts variations in oxides, proactively adjusting raw material ratios for precise control over weigh feeders.
This comprehensive system considers various factors, including the cost of additives, chemical process constraints, fuel effects, and transportation delays, ensuring minimal oxide variation and reduced standard deviation in Lime Saturation Factor (LSF). A lower LSF standard deviation translates to smoother kiln operation and a reduction in specific fuel consumption, enhancing both operational efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
BlendX's user interface offers robust reporting functions for quality compliance and provides trend curves for performance monitoring, giving you the insights needed to maintain optimal quality control and drive continuous improvement.
