Wear processes in a cement plant

Cement plants are amongst the most aggressive environments in terms of wear

Reasons for wear:

� High temperatures� Thermal stresses� 24/7 h of operation� Handling of hard

raw materials

Clinker cooler


Quarrying and crushing

� UTP DUR 350; UTP S DUR 350 as stick electrode� SK 350-G as flux-cored hardfacing wire

Weld metal of UTP DUR 350; UTP S DUR 350 is twice as hard as a standard mild steel electrode, but still easily machinable.

Goals

Wear depends on several factors

Base material: • Crystalline structure• Grain size• Hardness• Shape• Humidity

Material used for the wear components

Mill operation

Vertical mill design:not always the same wear profile

Hardfacing philosophy

Maintaining the original profile in order to guarantee optimum

production conditions.

Parts are always rebuilt to the design profile but not always to the original diameter for efficiency or

economical reason


Hardfacing alloy with chromium carbides

to resist abrasion

and moderate pressure

Flux cored wires


Repair shop or on site?

One or multiple welding heads to weld several parts at the same time

• No need to disassemble and reassemble the components

• Saving spare parts

Reduction of production down-time!


Advantages of hardfacing(compared to new components)


Advantages of hardfacing

Production (t/h) With Hardfacing

Without HardfacingExtra production

Time

• Longer service life

• Higher production output

� A hardfaced component will resist up to 2 times longercompared to a traditional cast component
