Why cement plants can no longer ignore AI and digital twins

Globally, environmental consciousness has grown tremendously in the new millennium. This has led to an extremely complex environment that puts pressure on cement manufacturers to boost production while curbing costs as well as the ecological impact. While digitalisation can help streamline operations, outdated assets and unconnected data systems hamper efforts to leverage data.

Advantages of digital twins

Digital twins powered by artificial intelligence can address this issue. Since digital twins revolutionise decision-making in factories, forward-looking cement producers are adopting these tools to stay ahead of the disruption curve. Digital twins require making virtual replicas of physical assets and processes that permit cement manufacturers to access massive amounts of operational data from varied sources. By contextualising and connecting segregated data, digital twins can discover real-time insights to diagnose, predict and control the operations and outcomes. The power of digital twins increases manifold ...
