CONCRETE PRODUCTS & CAST STONE108 CPI %u2013 Concrete Plant International %u2013 5 | 2025 www.cpi-worldwide.comThe entire curing process is managed by the AutoCure%u00ae intelligent control system, which automates the regulation of temperature and humidity, provides real-time monitoring, and allows for comprehensive data logging. This advanced system enables curing conditions to be maintained within a precision range of %u00b11 %u00b0C and %u00b14% relative humidity. As a result, IBF benefits from consistently high product quality, faster curing times, minimized risk of efflorescence, and the potential for reduced cement usage.Each curing chamber measures 17 meters in length, 3.2 meters in width, and 4 meters in height. Above the post-insulated ceiling, all galvanized steel ducts and piping are neatly arranged to allow easy access and a clear overview for future maintenance, ensuring both operational efficiency and longterm serviceability.A Coordinated Team EffortIBF%u2019s in-house %u201cMachine Division%u201d took charge of designing and installing the rack conveyors, handling systems, and packaging lines. The production unit and tile drying carousel were delivered by Italian firm Vortex, while the new mixing and batching plant came from Danish supplier Haarup. Kraft provided the curing chambers%u2019 temperature and humidity climate control and air circulation systems, including on-site installation and commissioning%u2014on time and to specification.The collaboration between these industry leaders reflects a coordinated strategy aimed at future-proofing IBF%u2019s roof tile production, with a remarkable output capacity of 140 tiles per minute.Built on History, Ready for the FutureFounded in 1960 by Johannes Rosenkilde, IBF grew from a small cement foundry into one of Denmark%u2019s most significant manufacturers of concrete products. Now led by Johannes%u2019 All parameters of the climate chamber conditions can be viewed via the AutoCure system user interface.Individual curing chambers: Each chamber can be controlled separately to ensure optimum temperature and humidity conditions.
