LB Technology has supplied Anatolia, a multinational tile manufacturer based in Turkey, with a fully automated plant, which reportedly features a loading capacity up to 400 tons per hour after all production lines are in operation.
According to LB, Anatolia needed to handle large quantities of raw materials without using loading shovels, thus avoiding human error on mixtures and storage, the main factor for accidents.
The solution implemented by LB is said to allow full automation of the entire line with an elaborate barcode detection system for all products. The system is also able to warn for out-of-stock material, to provide for its re-supply and to calculate costs and consumption in real time, using the company’s latest technologies.
LB Technology said: “The plant supplied in Turkey by LB is one of the largest and most innovative ones worldwide, paying attention to the customer’s needs, allowing the production of glazed and technical porcelain slabs sized 800×1600mm and 1600×3200mm, starting production of approximately 10,000sqm per day, increasing to 32,000sqm per day in 2024.”
Anatolia’s products are exported all over the world, mainly to the USA and Canada, and the new plant will be ready to operate by the end of Summer 2023.
