SIMATEC PROCESS CO.

What SIMATEC PROCESS CO. does

SIMATEC Process Co. is a privately-held, family-owned industrial technology company headquartered in Tehran, Iran, founded in 2005 by Seyed Esmail Zarei as a continuation of three generations of cement industry expertise originating with his father, S.E. Zarei, who worked in the Fars cement industry in Iran since the 1940s. The company designs, manufactures, and integrates industrial weighing and process optimization solutions for the cement and mining sectors, with a portfolio that includes dynamic weighing equipment (belt scales, belt weigh feeders, rotor weigh feeders, hopper scales, and the AXISCREW dosing system) and proprietary Technology Modules (TM) covering rotary kiln optimization, grinding optimization, dust filtration, and raw material concentration.

The company's underlying technology is built on two decades of licensing cooperation with established European industrial weighing brands including HASLER France, Schenck, and Pfister, from which it developed proprietary improvements such as the AXIDOS axial belt weighfeeder in 2007. Since 2012, SIMATEC has increasingly manufactured its own technology rather than relying on licensed designs, developing process optimization modules in cooperation with international technology partners including FLSmidth, KIMA process, intensive-filter, nirafon, and SPECTRAFLOW. The Technology Modules are knowledge-based solutions that combine hardware, instrumentation, and consulting to deliver measurable outcomes, including 5–20% capacity increases in rotary kilns, 5–15% grinding capacity gains, 3–20% energy consumption reductions, and 90% reductions in compressed air usage for dust filtration.

SIMATEC operates a direct, sales-led B2B go-to-market model, reaching enterprise customers in the cement and mining industries through its website, direct phone and email inquiry, WhatsApp Business, and field sales. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Revenue is generated from three streams: hardware sales of industrial weighing equipment, project-based professional services for process optimization modules, and technology licensing. The company has four publicly named enterprise customers (Golgohar, Foolad Sangan, Firooz Kooh, Siman Darab), all in the Iranian mining sector, and operates with a headcount of 14 employees. Geographic scope is limited to Iran within the broader Middle East region, and the company has no disclosed subsidiaries, external investors, or international expansion.

Core offering

SIMATEC PROCESS CO. manufactures and sells industrial weighing equipment (belt scales, hopper scales, belt weigh feeders, rotor weigh feeders, AXISCREW escrow weighing systems) and develops process optimization Technology Modules (TM) for cement and mining industries. The company delivers project-based custom engineering solutions combined with proprietary hardware to address production, energy, and accuracy challenges in cement plants and mining operations. Their solutions include rotary kiln optimization, grinding capacity improvement, dust filter cleaning, and alternative fuel integration developed in cooperation with international technology partners such as FLSmidth, KIMA process, HASLER France, intensive-filter, nirafon, and SPECTRAFLOW.

Product overview

SIMATEC Process offers two main product lines: Industrial Scale products (Hopper Scale, Belt Weigh Feeder, Rotor Weigh Feeder, Belt Scale, AXISCREW) for dynamic and static weighing applications in cement and industrial processes, and Process Optimization modules branded as Technology Modules (TM) including Dust Filter TM, Grinding TM, Concentrating TM, and Rotary Kiln TM. The Industrial Scale products range from basic belt scales to advanced rotor weigh feeders with capacities from 100kg/h to 10,000 t/h. The TM modules are knowledge-based process solutions developed in cooperation with technology partners to address specific industry challenges like increasing capacity, reducing energy consumption, and improving accuracy.

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• FLSmidth: Global cement and mining process-equipment major with which SIMATEC co-developed the Rotary Kiln TM and Alternative Fuel TM. A broad incumbent that competes in kilns, grinding, and materials handling — overlapping with SIMATEC's TM modules at much larger scale.
• Mettler-Toledo: Global leader in industrial weighing and dosing instrumentation across process industries. Competes with SIMATEC in precision feeders and scales while also serving far broader markets (lab, pharma, food).
• Siemens (Industrial Weighing / Milltronics): Industrial automation incumbent offering belt scales, weigh feeders, and process instrumentation across cement, mining, and aggregates. Competes with SIMATEC's Industrial Scale line as part of a much broader portfolio.

Direct peers

• Brabender Technologie: Manufacturer of gravimetric and volumetric feeders, weigh feeders, and dosing systems for bulk solids in cement, minerals, and chemicals. Direct peer in precision dosing and feeding for similar industrial customers.
• Coperion (K-Tron): Specialist in feeding, weighing, and conveying equipment for bulk solids and powders, including cement and mineral processing. Direct competitor to SIMATEC's belt and rotor weigh feeders for high-accuracy dosing applications.
• HASLER France: Original licensor of belt scale manufacturing to SIMATEC since 2005; now competes head-to-head as a specialist in industrial weighing and feeding for cement, mining, and bulk solids handling — a direct peer with overlapping product lines.
• Schenck Process: Global leader in industrial weighing, feeding, and screening for cement and mining — a direct competitor across SIMATEC's belt scales, weigh feeders, and process optimization modules. SIMATEC explicitly references Schenck as a former licensing/brand relationship.
• KIMA Process: Specialist in grinding optimization and process control for cement and minerals; co-developed SIMATEC's Grinding TM and Concentrating TM. Direct competitor in online mill optimization with comparable measurable ROI claims.
