Robert Turski, President of the European Aerated Concrete Association (EAACA), captured the spirit of the event perfectly in his keynote:

“Challenges and Opportunities for Tomorrow’s Construction Industry”

AAC is a fantastic building material that offers exactly what the future of construction demands: strength, light weight, ease of use, and full recyclability. Its unique characteristics make AAC a key solution for circular construction and the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.

With an installed capacity of approximately 7.0 million cubic meters per year, Türkiye is one of the largest AAC markets worldwide. Several market players are currently considering upgrades and modernisation of their existing plants to meet future requirements.

Simon Lou, Co-Managing Director of our joint venture company Wehrhahn Teeyer Smart Technology Corp. Ltd., addressed this demand in detail and presented feasible, attractive solutions based on an already successfully executed showcase project.

The audience response was extremely positive and clearly showed that clients are highly interested in benchmarking advanced technology under favourable conditions.

We are truly grateful for all the valuable discussions, inspiring exchanges, and friendly moments we experienced during this outstanding event.

Please feel free to reach out - we look forward to continuing the dialogue.

STT Türk Gazbeton has taken over the former ATEK aerated concrete plant in Çorlu and is now actively driving forward its modernisation.

The existing Wehrhahn superSMART aerated concrete production plant has been operating successfully for many years. To bring the plant up to date and increase automation, Wehrhahn was commissioned to modernise key sub-systems, including mould locking and mould release, as well as machines for mould cleaning and mould oiling. This minimises staffing requirements, increases production efficiency and further reduces manufacturing costs.

Wehrhahn has developed the MCS (Master Control Server), which is a purpose-built, highly integrated system specifically tailored for Wehrhahn plants rather than a generic, off-the-shelf MES and includes a wide range of specialised evaluation tools.

The mood at the construction site was one of high spirits when the first AAC cake was produced. The new plant is the second Wehrhahn production facility for Soceram. The new SMART represents the latest generation of machines and technologies. It has all the features recently developed to ensure the highest possible plant efficiency and the lowest possible production costs.

The joint venture company ‘Wehrhahn Teeyer Smart Technology’ was established to complement the key equipment supplied by Wehrhahn from Germany in projects where customers intend to procure the equipment specified as ‘local’ or ‘buyer’ supply through a reputable single contractor. It enables Wehrhahn together with the Joint Venture company to offer cost-attractive turnkey solutions to customers around the globe.

Our partner Teeyer from Changzhou is a listed company with an excellent reputation in the Chinese market. Prior to the establishment of the joint venture, the parties realized several projects. Wehrhahn supplied the key equipment from Germany and Teeyer completed the ‘local’ delivery according to Wehrhahn's drawings and specifications.

Deeper co-operation in the form of a joint venture is now the logical consequence.

Customers who are interested in such cost-efficient turnkey solutions are cordially invited to contact us!

The new production plant is equipped with all the latest Wehrhahn innovations. The most recent sheet thickness control system enables highly feasible production conditions and significantly reduces the carbon footprint of the production process. Another innovation is the highly flexible waterjet cutting system, which is implemented in a corrugated sheet plant for the first time.

We would like to thank the entire El Toro team for their excellent cooperation on this project!

Our fibre cement specialist, Rainer Becker, gave a presentation on „Sheet thickness control system optimization through mathematical modelling and self-learning pump maps“.

Intelligent control systems are a vital part in all Wehrhahn production plants. In fibre cement sheet production plants the automatic sheet thickness control system has a decisive influence on the plant performance and feasibility.

A general issue with sheet thickness control is the linked structure of the various controllers involved for tank filling levels, slurry throughput, felt speed and slurry density. Time lag and mutual dynamical influences can lead to increased sheet thickness tolerances under certain operating conditions such as plant start-up or e.g. in the event of process disturbances by changes in flocculation efficiency or increasing pipe clogging.

Here considerable improvements can be achieved.
