Projects
Quelques mandats concrets
Every project starts with an on-the-ground understanding: existing equipment, production constraints, seasonality, available data and the role of your operators.
NIVEK then recommends a realistic, maintainable solution adapted to your plant.
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
