The control system of a rotary kiln: inspect pro control C acquires and analyzes the image data from the camera. It calculates the relevant characteristic parameters and uses this information to determine the control parameters needed to optimize the process.
Advantages of inspect pro control C
- Reduced energy costs
- Optimized combustion
- Better cement quality
- Starting point for estimating cement quality

Process-control optimization with camera-based characteristics
inspect pro control C acquires and analyzes image data obtained from high-performance infrared cameras in cement rotary-kiln systems.
The software preprocesses image data and calculates characteristic parameters of the combustion behavior. On this basis, process control is adapted to optimize operations. inspect pro control C transfers the new parameters directly to the burner and process-control system of the incinerator while simultaneously visualizing and archiving them.
Using image-based characteristics for process optimization
The innovative inspect pro control C system was developed in cooperation with research and industry and has already been applied successfully at the production facilities of leading cement manufacturers. The system successfully calculates the required combustion characteristics even when there are various fuel fractions. Furthermore, it derives the control parameters for stable combustion and temperature distribution. As a result, a consistently high product quality is reached. Additionally, the AI-based free-lime estimator provides real-time information on the currently produced cement quality long before the laboratory analysis is completed.
Installation in your plant
inspect pro control C is already successfully established at plants of leading cement manufacturers. It can be retrofitted on all all rotary kiln plants, enabling significant energy savings while maintaining high product quality and extending plant service lives.
