The Technical Centre is equipped with Reliable tests for your plants, processes and products The data bank held at our Technical Centre holds information on more than 12,000 different bulk solids. This information ensures that right from the start, in the planning phase, silos, conveying and dosing systems as well as mixing technology and packing components are designed based on proven experience. Apart from the test stored series data, and comprehensive the latest technology. Air and turbine packers, mixers and pneumatic conveying systems are placed along the test route which a product will pass before clients decide to invest in the construction of a new plant or the optimisation of existing systems. This ensures decision. clients have the best information available for a sound

Our technical engineers are constantly striving for further improvements. It is that desire for perfection that continuously improves processes and steadily increases economic efficiency allowing our clients to meet the ever increasing demands for quality and cost-effectiveness. For dry mortar products, these high quality standards can often only be tested under realistic conditions. To this end our Technical Centre offers you our in-depth knowledge of recipes, quality standards and testing methods.

Sand...well-processed

The main component of dry mortar is sand. Sand in its original form, however, can hardly be used because it is wet and its composition is often inconsistent. Grains in good shape Only well-adjusted processing systems turn sand into a high-quality raw material. Special impact crushers, for instance, are used to grind the material. These crushers produce only a very small share of fillers and form cubic grains. In the drying process that follows, our main focus is to reach a low-end temperature while still maintaining low energy consumption. The sand cooled down to less than 60C is screened to obtain the required grain size of the different end products.

Delivery and Storage of Raw Materials

Whether coarse and wet aggregates or pulverised dry products, whether delivered by truck or rail, processed manually or fully automatic - CPT technology feeds products to the silo, clean and with hardly any dust. With our systems, even product feeding is an absolutely clean affair. Tailor-made silos Together we will find an individual solution to suit your specific requirements. The quantities handled will define the storage volume of the

silo. Our experiences with different raw materials help decide on the correct silo type for capacity required. Depending on the type of application, steel silos or textile silos with either pneumatic or mechanical discharge systems, can be used. The variety from which to choose is vast. Quality, however, can best be assured when it has been the major focus from the planning phase right through to the commissioning of a plant.

Weighing and Dosing...The Correct Recipe!

Dosing of additives from big-bags with frequency-controlled dosing screws for 2 - 20t/h.

In short, these two functions define the quality of the finished product - with regard to quantity, composition and the ratio of the different materials to each other. Individual and efficient Depending on the type and throughput capacity of the different raw material components, different dosing systems are used. Tailor-made to meet the requirements of each raw material, dosing screws, dosing aeroslides, dosing gates or, in some cases, flowmetering devices are utilised. Based on our experience, we recommend screws for binding agents, admixtures or additives, which are fed with a capacity of up to approx. 100t/h.

For higher capacities, dosing aeroslides should be used. In cases where aggregates cause wear or destroy material grains - as is the case with quartz sands and pearlites - dosing gates are well proven. CPT also offers special weighing systems for your demands:

important that a consistent mixture is produced in the shortest time possible. This also applies to small dosing quantities. The on Claudius the Peters of turbulence mixer works principle mechanical fluidised

beds and achieves an optimum mixing quality due to the special arrangement of the mixing tools. For adding dyes and additives, the mixer is equipped with choppers moving at a speed of up to 3000 min-1. This high speed prevents agglomeration and allows the use of fluids and pigments. Fast change of products guaranteeing pure products To meet the clients' demand of evershorter delivery times, today's plant must be designed for a fast changeover from one product to the other while guaranteeing that the products are absolutely pure. With Claudius Peters components this is no problem. Our double-discharge flap system allows discharge rates of up to 99.9 per cent of the mixer gross volume. Depending on the case of application, hydraulic or pneumatic Optimum wear protection for high availability As abrasive materials are often used in dry building materials, for instance quartz sand, wear is a crucial consideration. Our engineers overcame this challenge and the result of their efforts is that our mixers offer highest availability as they are built of the bestsuited materials and incorporate constructional protective measures.

We help you handle it!

Claudius Peters packing plants belong to the generation of smart products, i.e. they work with a comprehensive technology to ensure that different products and bag sizes can be processed and that the subsequent handling works perfectly. Fit in every discipline We deliver air and turbine packers, carrousel or in-line type. We can also include an ultrasonic sealing system where requested.

Secure on Pallets

Changing from one bag size to another, e.g. from 30kg to 40kg, for a new product is done by simply pressing one button. This is daily routine for the operators of our palletising systems. In our plants, integrated palletisers cover the complete capacity range from 400 to 4,000 bags per hour with all common palletising patterns. Using versatile palletising robots, traditional palletisers for medium and high capacities or an ideal combination of both systems, depends on individual clients' requirements. The modular design of our system allows all these options. Safely transported A foil packing system is the standard for all our palletisers to ensure that the packed building materials reach clients in safe condition. Wrapping, stretching or shrinking - for each method we deliver the best-suited technology as part of our commitment to offer complete solutions.

Flexibility does not stop at the Mixer

When loading bulk materials it is vital to make the pure products available to the clients in time. In practice, however, it is not possible to use a separate silo for each finished product. Together we will determine the most economic solution. This can, on the one hand, be direct loading from the mixer into the silo truck or site containers or, on the other hand, Claudius Peters Technologies finished product silos for a fast, simple product change. The special design of these silos prevents segregation of the products.

Everything under control

Our control technology, which is proven worldwide, ensures trouble-free operation of the production process from the initial material supply to the loading of the finished products. Based on standardised hardware and software components our concept meets all requirements on process technology and automation. At Claudius Peters Technologies both aspects work hand in hand, providing the optimum solution for clients.
