The Top 5 Pain Points in Silo Management at Mixing Stations:

01. In the estimation of material levels in concrete mixing stations, the traditional "manual tapping" method is mostly used for estimation. The powder inside the silo is uneven, resulting in significant measurement errors. This method is only suitable for a rough estimation within a general range.

02. The inventory values provided by another ERP system, calculated by subtracting the consumption from the incoming material quantities, are derived from the weighbridge for incoming data and from the equipment metering scales for consumption data. Both sources inherently have errors, making the accuracy insufficient.

03. Safety hazards, such as exploded silos, dust collectors, ash pipes, and accidents resulting in personnel injuries, occur frequently.

04. Environmental pollution penalties incurred due to quality issues caused by supply interruptions during the project and severe environmental pollution from overflow of powder materials.

05. Due to the untimely replenishment of powder materials, the production halt resulted in significant losses for the enterprise.

The Siwei inventory measurement solution utilizes industrial-grade sensors to accurately convert silo leg deformation into a real-time inventory diagram.

The system ensures material level safety through alarm lights, audio alerts, and push notifications. Users can monitor and manage the silo using various methods such as touch screen panels, computers, and smartphones.
