High-Accuracy Alloy Steel Weighing Modules for Cement Storage Silos – Turkey

High-Accuracy Alloy Steel Weighing Modules for Cement Storage Silos – Turkey

1. Project Background

In Turkey’s construction and cement industry, accurate bulk material weighing is essential for inventory control, batching accuracy, and cost management.
The customer planned to upgrade the weighing system of several cement storage silos to improve measurement precision and reduce maintenance downtime.

They required robust, high-precision weighing modules capable of handling heavy loads and harsh industrial conditions.

2. Customer & Application Scenario

The customer is a cement production and material handling company in Turkey, operating large-capacity silos for cement and mineral powders.

Application scenario includes:

• Silo weight measurement

• Bulk material inventory monitoring

• Production batching and material balance control

The weighing modules are installed under steel silos and exposed to dust, vibration, and temperature fluctuations.

3. Our Solution (Process Flow + Equipment Configuration)

We supplied HSB series alloy steel weighing modules, specially selected for high-load and outdoor silo applications.

System configuration:

• HSB high-precision weighing modules

• Alloy steel load cells with IP68 protection

• Anti-overturning support bolts for silo stability

• Stainless steel mounting components

• Connection to on-site weighing indicators and PLC system

Process flow:
Material storage → Continuous weight sensing → Signal output → Control system processing → Inventory management
