Toward the smart factory, one step at a time.
Our strength: automating your bulk processes, from material receiving to loading, and from field measurement all the way to Industry 4.0.
From pain points to measurable gains.
FIELD REALITIES
WHAT NIVEK INTEGRATES
OPERATIONAL RESULTS
Proven in the field
See all projects →
Automated grinding and roller mill
Situation — The grinder and the roller mill ran in manual mode, on separate starters.
What NIVEK did — We redesigned the electrical room and the control system: sensors added, programming and commissioning. A “keep full” mode holds the silos full from grind level setpoints — normal and critical. When the particle size changes, the adjustment stays manual, so the system asks the operator to confirm it has been made.
Automated two-pit receiving
Situation — Receiving ran entirely in manual mode.
What NIVEK did — We automated all of it: two receiving pits, bulk-to-bulk transfers and debagging — from bags to bulk.
Automated liquid fertilizer plant
What NIVEK did — We automated the whole plant:
- 4 receiving stations, 3 mixers
- 2 truck loading stations, 1 tote filling station
- Solid products blended into the liquid mixes
- 31 storage silos, 189 valves
The system computes the best route for each product and prevents any contamination between incompatible products. Mixing times are driven by each product's parameters.
Automated bitumen polymerization plant
What NIVEK did — We automated the whole plant:
- Rail and truck receiving, storage and warehousing
- Continuous dosing for polymerization
- 2 “blend to truck” shipping bays: the recipe is dosed straight into the truck, with every product starting and finishing at the same time
- Advanced recipe management
- Standalone scale: prints shipping tickets and certificates of compliance
The smart factory is built in stages.
We measure your process, we quantify the gains within reach, then we deploy the next stage and train your teams — without halting production.

The real cost of in-house development often exceeds expectations: between salaries, training and trial-and-error, commissioning generally stretches over 18 to 36 months. This approach leaves the organization managing both daily operations and the change process, creating a dependence on a few key resources and limiting your agility to the skills available in-house.
Choosing NIVEK means drawing on proven field expertise to deploy a custom, maintainable and scalable solution. Each project is planned around your needs and delivered ready for your next season — with assisted startup and a measurable return on investment.
The NIVEK advantage:
✓ Integrated expertise — Mastery of complex processes and digital recipe management to secure your batches.
✓ Operational continuity — Complete documentation and responsive local support.
✓ Lasting agility — Interconnected data flows and continuously updated knowledge.Hover to see the figures
