Services
Maximizing your returns
In a marker a characterized with product oversupply and significant increase in cost of operation, operational efficiency plays a pivotal role in sustaining profitable margins. Our operational and maintenance support safeguards your investment from costly operational interruptions, excessive fuel consumption in addition to enhancing site readiness for dealing with design or erection faults
Flexible operation & maintenance packages
Our O&M compares various packages starting from short term task-based support all the way up to outsourcing the plant full O & M .Based on the client requirements and our technical assessment of the plant condition, we recommend the suitable packages
Out sourcing O & M plant Technical Management
Option for full plant technical management will realize three direct gains
- Taking on the responsibility of the Plant technical performance.
- Guaranteed performance levels linked to the cost of operation.
- Enhance equipment reliability and longer lifetime of the plant.
Indirect benefits entails least protection of investment, our services under plant technical management comprises, best calibers and applying best practices.
- Planning and caring on the operational functions: production, maintenance, inspection, preventive maintenance, inspection and quality control.
- Introduction and applying management systems for all operational areas in addition to, warehousing and spare parts management inventory
- Improving the practices and compliance with International HR management for the O & M team including hiring training and replacement.
Plant Technical Assistance
Technical assistance is a perfect choice for plant or grinding stations where owners require technical support at supervisory levels in order to lead less experienced teams on site. Plant technical assistance may include
- On-site support for the clients teams to carry out O & M functions & gradual knowledge transfer to domestic teams through on - the job training. Introducing and integrating operation, maintenance, warehouse, inventory and quality control systems.
- Introduction of safety policy and standards.
- Supporting procurement planning through defining specification and equipment standards
Overhauling
- Complete kiln sections replacement overhauling & replacement of kiln accessories and bearings components. (girth gear, roller, bearing, nose ring, …. etc.)
- Grinding & alignment of riding rings and girth gear systems
- Replacement of inner pipes; duct works, sheet metal works, cyclone roofs including castable and refractory works.
- Complete overhauling of tube mills including diaphragms, lining bearing girth gear replacement and maintenance lining of ducts, cyclone separation & crushers.
- Maintenance of separators.
- Maintenance of crushers
- Overhauling for different types of coolers
- Maintenance of hydraulic systems and its accessories
- Change rotors and all parts of limestone & clay crushers
- Changing and complete overhauling and maintenance of limestone reclaimers of different types welding (cold and hot vulcanizing) for all types of belt conveyors bricks and castable work for preheater
X-Ray
Our X-ray experts are highly qualified in maintaining, repairing and operation of laboratory equipment; particular, as x-ray spectrometers used for chemical analysis of materials used in cement and other industrial applications.
Process measurements & optimization
Meeting capacity targets does not guarantee profitable operation. Carrying out regular process measurements reveals process bottleneck which are conductive to excessive energy consumption or process disruptions. Exploiting the latest measurement equipment, our team analyzes the collected readings and recommends measures for debottlenecking the process; continuous consistent operation and thus ensures the most efficient energy consumption rates which boils down into improved margins
cappacity upgrades
If plant higher production capacity is commercially required but technically unattainable, then you certainly should consider upgrading your production line, we have a long record of successful capacity upgrade projects entailing extensive process modifications, replacing equipment and raw mix studies. Capacity upgrades are always a feasible option versus embarking on significant investments for constructing of new lines.
standard operating procedures
Human errors occur, especially in absences of standard manuals or expert supervision could have negative impact on plant economics. Creating standard operating procedures for all plant areas serves as a knowledge archive that leads to reduced incident stoppages resulting from human faults. Our technical center launches steers and implements SOPs through driving the plant teams to document their activities evaluate them against best practice and delivers the proper SOPs.
inventory management system
Efficiently managing inventory that allows for a smooth operation and maintenance via ensuring availability of security spares safeguards the plant against interrupted operation and permits only for planned stoppages. Developing an effective inventory management system entails
- A complete list of all recommended spare parts according to O & M suppliers.
- Spare parts delivery planning
- Description and classification of spare parts
- Coding of spare parts.
- Defining the minimum and maximum stock according to delivery cycle: production cost and delivery time.
- Spare parts delivery planning.
