A PROVEN SOLUTION! Martin Engineering's award-winning N2® remote monitoring system now has a proven track record with more than a year of performance data from a major lime works in the UK.

Installing our pioneering N2® remote monitoring system on 43 conveyor belt cleaners at the flagship production site of Singleton Birch Limited has solved numerous 'pain points' such as frequent inefficient service visits, increased safety hazard touchpoints and difficulties in maintenance management.

N2® is performing well, allowing maintenance planning to be simplified with detailed belt cleaner information available on demand, allowing technicians to focus on the priorities and install replacement wear parts as needed.

The result is a dramatic increase in efficiency and almost 50% reduction in site visits, improving safety through reduced exposure to equipment, saving money on labour and offering a quick and calculable return on investment. Singleton Birch says: “N2® is a clever piece of kit that’s safe, saves time and is easy to use.”

Is your job about production in quarrying, mining or materialprocessing? Do you run a complex plant with multiple conveyors over a wide area? Then remote monitoring for condition-based maintenance could be right for you.

How do you know? Consider three statements:

(1) I see the advantages of technology (rather than perceived problems or risks).
(2) I like off-the-shelf, standalone solutions (rather than getting caught up in IT stuff).
(3) I adapt well to new ways of working to improve safety, efficiency and productivity.

Sounds like you? Then we’re confident you would benefit from Martin Engineering’s smart N2® remote monitoring system.

Coming soon to Europe, Middle East, Africa and India, N2® predicts when conveyor belt cleaner blades need servicing or replacing, and keeps you updated via a mobile app or desktop dashboard.

Martin Engineering conveyor belt cleaners control spillage and prevent unwanted material build-up so your processing plants run better for longer.

And with our ground-breaking N2® Position Indicator (PI) system – launching very soon – your belt cleaners can be monitored remotely. Each N2 PI delivers belt cleaner performance data via the on-site ‘gateway’ to the cloud – from there it sends updates to your mobile device, predicting when to service or replace each cleaner blade.

Using well-proven smart technology, the N2® PI reduces safety risk, saves time and effort, improves budgeting and helps with inventory control. Several N2 PI’s are already delivering performance data at one of the UK’s biggest chalk quarries and lime works, ahead of a major #productlaunch across Europe, Middle East, Africa and India from January 2021.

Don’t miss the technology revolution!
