The unit employs TEM(R)'s patented Continuous Automatic Mixing (CAM) recirculating mixing system along with CTES' ORION Data Acquisition system.

John Power - General Manager TEM(R) states, "This cementer is an excellent example of the collaborative design process TEM employs. TEM provides the mixing technology and manufacturing know-how, blended with the operational experience from the customer, to produce a fit-for-purpose unit that meets or exceeds industry standards."
