MAC Suite / Operations & quality / MACLAB
The only LIMS that knows when its own analyzers are wrong.
MACLAB is a full LIMS for the cement plant lab, with one difference: it checks its own analyzers, and only lets raw mix advice through when they can be trusted.
The problem
What MACLAB solves
An analyzer that drifts quietly sends the raw mix the wrong way, and the lab finds out hours later. By then the kiln has made off-spec clinker.
