Truckload Management
Track cement inventory by the truckload to ensure timely replenishment and avoid under- or over-ordering.
Cement Inventory Management Systems
BinMaster provides real-time cement inventory management for silos, bins, and hoppers used in cement production, concrete batching, and construction bulk materials handling.
CementView® pairs with continuous and point-level sensors to measure cement, clinker, aggregates, sand, fly ash, & additives, and automatically updates inventory data to a phone or PC.
BinMaster systems reduce carrying costs, prevent material shortages, and improve coordination across plants, terminals, and job sites.
Automate Cement & Aggregate Inventory
Bulk Material Systems for Cement Operations
Accurate cement inventory is essential to maintaining uninterrupted production and construction schedules. Level sensors mounted on silos continuously measure bulk material levels and report real-time inventory levels to a centralized software system.
Measure Cement Through Dusty Environments
Cement plants generate heavy dust. Non-contact radar level sensors ignore dust and buildup, providing reliable measurements without contacting the material.
Multiple Plants and Silos, One Platform
Monitor a single silo or thousands across multiple plants and terminals. CementView® software consolidates inventory data to support purchasing, production planning, and logistics.
Real-Time Visibility for Decision-Makers
Sensors collect measurements. Software organizes data. Teams make informed decisions. CementView delivers clear, actionable inventory information to operations, dispatch, and procurement.
BinMaster cement inventory systems streamline material procurement, improve workplace safety, and strengthen supply chain performance—delivering measurable ROI through continuous inventory tracking.
Sensor Applications for Cement & Concrete
Silo Level Monitoring
Radar and ultrasonic sensors continuously measure cement and aggregates and report the data to the CementView software.
Conveyors and Transfer Points
Radar sensors and tilt switches detect empty or overloaded conveyors to reduce downtime and prevent overfills.
Batch and Flow Control
Rotary paddles, vibrating rods, and flow detection sensors verify material presence and flow in feeders and conveying systems.
Truck and Railcar Scheduling
Estimate available truckloads and optimize delivery routes, driver schedules, and mixer utilization.
Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI)
Share CementView data with suppliers and automate replenishment rules to improve supply chain coordination.
Reduce Cement Supply Chain Risks
Volatile Cement Markets
Material pricing and availability fluctuates. Real-time inventory data supports smarter purchasing decisions.
Prevent Material Shortages
Avoid costly shutdowns caused by empty silos or depleted aggregates with continuous inventory monitoring.
Where Sensors Thrive in Concrete Industry Applications
Radar level sensors continuously measure fine cement powder produced from clinker grinding and additives.
Batch plants depend on accurate inventories of cement, sand, aggregate, water, and admixtures to maintain consistent batching.
Plants producing blocks, panels, beams, and structural components rely on continuous material monitoring to maintain throughput rates.
Cement packing plants measure powdered materials for retail and construction markets and must ensure sufficient on-hand inventory.
Storage and distribution hubs use silo level monitoring to manage railcar and truck transfers efficiently.
Inventory Software for Cement Operations
CementView provides accurate, real-time inventory data to help estimate transit mixer & hauler requirements, reduce delivery delays, and improve on-time performance.
