Timlyuy Cement upgrades two raw mills

19 June 2020

Russia: Sibtsem Holding Company subsidiary Timlyuy Cement has announced the completion of essential upkeep on raw material mills five and ten at its Timlyuy Cement plant. Improvements included the replacement of exhausted plate feeders with bucket feeders for accurate dosing, “improving the quality of the finished product while lowering cost,” according to Timlyuy Cement process control chief expert Vladislav Zarubin. A new conveyor belt with an electric drive, strain gauges and control system was also included under the US$57,500 upgrades.

Timlyuy Cement says that per unit productivity has increased by 37% to 55t/hr from 41t/hr. Managing director Vladimir Klichko said, “For the Timlyuy Cement plant, improving the reliability of process equipment is traditionally one of the primary tasks. The modernisation of raw materials grinding, performed at the proper level, is the key to stable and efficient operation of the enterprise - a guarantee that even at the peak of the construction season, consumers will receive high-quality products on time, and in the right amount.”

FLSmidth added that as both OK mills at the plant will share the same gearbox design, the unit will be able to streamline maintenance and manage inventory costs by sharing the one spare FLSmidth MAAG WPU-200 assembly.
