BinMaster’s CementView™ is a software as a service (SaaS) platform that exploits the power of the new level sensor technology and an easy user interface to reduce production stoppages and material shortages. It also makes it faster, safer and less tedious to monitor the inventory contained in silos and storage tanks.
The CementView™ SaaS ensures that users are aware of the amount of material present in each vessel, which is an important aspect of processing operations. The software also avoids inventory discrepancies that create production headaches and adversely impact profitability.
Plan for Material Demand and Optimize Delivery Schedules
The CementView™ SaaS makes sure that the material demands are met by plants for day-to-day deliveries. The historical tracking feature of the software provides the data required to predict the needs of upcoming projects. The software also helps plants reduce out of stocks, set priorities, and almost eliminate delivery emergencies.
With the CementView™ SaaS, data can be viewed, exchanged and shared among plant managers, suppliers, purchasers, drivers and dispatchers. Dispatchers can make sure that drivers will be able to supply an entire load with the confidence it will fit in the silos. This prevents messy overfills and unnecessary cleanups.

Accurate and Actionable Data
The CementView™ SaaS can be used with non-contact radar level sensors that are highly accurate, dust-resistant and can be rapidly updated. Models are available to measure aggregates, sand, fly ash, cement, liquid additives, process, chemicals, or wastewater stored in any of the vessels. These vessels can be sorted based on material, location, or alert status.
Through the CementView™ SaaS, visual charts and downloadable reports can be used to monitor material usage, detect trends and predict future demands.

The CementView™ SaaS supplies crucial inventory data to suppliers’ ordering systems through API calls for third-party application integration. The advanced architecture of the CementView™ SaaS enables bidirectional data exchange, thus allowing data export and import between programs when needed.
