Optimization of operation and maintenance

To optimize the availability of our rotary kilns, we have developed different service products for both the mining sector and cement plant. This service products lead to a significant improvement in the tyre fastening system, the large gear fastening systems and the seals, as well as in rotary kiln operation. We can help you to operate your plant efficiently, keep maintenance processes simple and optimize the use of spare parts.

Proven and innovative optimisation products

We offer you our service for packing, delivery, installation and for adaptation of the parts to the specific production condition. Our range of services includes proven and, at the same time, innovative spare parts and modernization projects:

1. Splined tyre fastening system

The system transmits the forces from the kiln shell onto the tyre, and thus allows optimal expansion of the rotary kiln shell whilst the operating temperature increases. Damage to the refractory lining and to the kiln shell is thus prevented.

2. Loose tyre fastening system

Changes in the rotary kiln shell and in the tyre diameter that arise due to temperature changes are compensated by means of "kiln tyre pads" and "shim plates". To get the optimal ovality value of the rotary kiln shell at normal operating conditions we adapt the required tyre clearance constructively for any application. An optimal ovality values are fundamental precondition for optimised lifetime of the refractory lining.

3. Flexible girth gear fastening system

The flexible girth gear fastening system is known for its outstanding operating characteristics and its easy maintenance. The special feature of this flexible girth gear fastening system is that it is very rigid in the circumferential direction but flexible in the direction of the kiln centre.

4. Pneumatic kiln inlet and outlet seals

We offer seals for a large range of radial and axial movements. Thanks to a robust and low-wear design, as well as easy retrofitting with an extremely low downtime, our sealing systems are highly efficient.

5. Hydraulic axial thrust system

With the hydraulic axial thrust system, we assist a constant and continuous movement of your rotary kiln, thanks to enforced axial uphill or downhill movement.
