Baştaş Çimento, a significant player in Turkey's industrial landscape, is also one of the first cement factories to operate as a publicly listed company. With an annual capacity of 3 million tons of clinker and 4.4 million tons of cement grinding, the plant clearly demonstrates its strong position and production capacity within the industry.In the preheater tower of the plant's rotary kiln line, occasional blockages were occurring in the orifice area. These blockages not only caused unwanted kiln shutdowns but also posed serious safety risks during cleaning operations. After a thorough examination, it was decided to implement the Martin Multiport Air Cannon System to address this issue.

To address this issue, a comprehensive revision process was initiated. The first step involved the careful selection of appropriate nozzles, followed by successful installation under the supervision of our engineers. Next, the Martin Multiport Air Cannon System was installed, and the commissioning process was completed. This innovative system minimizes blockages through optimized flow control and real-time monitoring, ensuring continuous production and increased efficiency. Automation and smart process management reduce the need for manual intervention, decreasing error rates and boosting production speed. Additionally, integrated safety protocols protect workers from potential hazards, ensuring workplace safety. Combined, these features deliver enhanced performance, safety, and productivity.

Thanks to the collaboration between the Martin team and the operations, the installation of the Martin Multiport Air Shock System has eliminated accumulation and blockage issues in the Orifiz area. The daily clinker production losses caused by these problems have been minimized.The investment in this solution was recouped within just 4 months due to significant increases in productivity, efficiency, and profitability. With increased productivity, production volume rose, allowing more products to be produced in less time. Efficiency gains, such as reduced downtime and resource consumption, helped lower operational costs, directly leading to higher profit margins. These improvements, along with cost savings, enabled higher production with less energy, maintenance, and labor, ultimately boosting profitability.
