By automatically adjusting curing profiles to meet target strength and target completion, it prevents both under-curing, which risks structural failure, and over-curing, which wastes time and energy. This precise control means lower energy consumption, reduced cycle times, and fewer errors in production scheduling.The system allows for %u201cbelt and braces%u201d redundancy. When predictive maturity signals curing is complete/strength is reached, a test specimen may be tested in order to assure the required/predicted strength has been reached - adding more data points to the predictive maturity library and creating a more precise maturity curve for the following cure.The Benefits of Predictive MaturityThe advantages of predictive maturity extend across the production chain. Quality improves, since every element is verified to have reached the required strength before handling. Time savings are substantial, as operators no longer rely on conservative buffer times but can act at the precise moment the concrete is ready. Energy efficiency increases, because the system avoids running heaters, steam generators, or hot air systems longer than necessary. From a management perspective, predictive maturity enhances planning and coordination. Knowing in advance when products will be ready allows staffing and logistics to be aligned with production output, minimizing idle time and bottlenecks. The result is a smoother, more efficient workflow, lower costs, and greater confidence in delivery schedules.Eliminating Uncertainty in Concrete ProductionPredictive maturity is more than a technological advance%u2014it represents a fundamental change in how concrete production is managed. By enabling producers to decide when their products are ready and automatically adapting curing conditions to meet that deadline, Kraft Curing shifts control from uncertainty to certainty. This development is not just about faster turnaround or lower energy bills. It is about transforming curing from an art guided by experience into a science guided by real-time data and predictive modeling. nFURTHER INFORMATIONwww.jbconcrete.frKraft Curing Systems GmbH M%u00fchlenberg 2, 49699 Lindern, Germany T +49 5957 96120 info@kraftcuring.com www.kraftcuring.comPrestressed concrete production with Match-Cure environmental chambersKraft Curing sponsored the free download possibility of the pdf of this article for all readers of CPI.
