Ma-estro’s Q-Control plant automation
3938 Ma-Estro specialises in streamlining quarrying activities through the use of integrated, easy-to-use IT solutions.

From standardised control systems to complete customised systems for the automation and full control of the plant, Trentino-based Ma-estro says its flexible software is capable of providing all the significant data required for calculating production costs in real time.

The firm’s range of solutions includes Q-Production - for monitoring of production and energy consumption; Q-Control - for plant automation; Q-Maintenance – for automated maintenance management; and Q-Fuel - for monitoring fuel consumption.

Giorgio Manara, Ma-estro’s owner and founder, comes from a family of quarry operators who continue to manage inert materials production plants in Pilcante di Ala (TN). The family’s work is said to have inspired the creation of Ma-estro’s IT solutions aimed at reducing consumption, eliminating waste and knowing the exact cost per tonne of produced inert material.

    Scania will be showing both Euro 6 engines for its on-highway truck range and Stage IIB/Tier 4 Final powerplants for off-highway use. The company will use both exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) to meet the coming regulations, as with its current Stage IIIB solution. This means the fitting of a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) but no requirement for a DPF. Scania engines are currently in use in Terex and Doosan articulated haulers, along with a number of Terex crushing ma

    Fraccaroli & Balzan, which designs, manufactures and installs waste water treatment systems, is showcasing its biggest filter press yet at bauma 2013. Previously the Italian firm only made lateral beam-type filter presses, which can only go up to a certain size and capacity. Now Fraccaroli & Balzan has developed high beam filter presses, which can be much larger and designed for quarries that need to process high volumes of material. “This filter press is for big quarries with big production that prefer to

    January 6, 2017
    Synthetic diamond division of DeBeers, Element Six, has developed the 3D Percussive Diamond Insert (PDI) that it claims will radically cut costs in the mining drill industry. The 3D PDI uses the firm’s polycrystalline diamond technology to optimise wear and impact resistance properties, while improving penetration rates for the drill bit. The firm claims that tests of the drill insert show up to 10 times the drill life of a conventional tungsten carbide insert., greatly reducing costly rig downtime for serv
