    Equipment for the Cement Industry

    Cement plants produce abrasive dust permanently, and the exposed equipment - motors, gearboxes, belts and bearings - must have at least IP65 protection and wear-resistant materials in line with the BAT/BREF emission thresholds. We quote bag or cartridge dust filters, drive belts, blowers for pneumatic conveying, heavy-duty bearings and process automation. Send the gas flow rate or the code of the existing equipment.

    Frequently asked questions

    What IP protection must motors and gearboxes have in a cement plant with abrasive dust?

    For areas with cement dust (mill, conveyors, silo), we recommend at least IP65 protection (fully dust-tight, protected against water jets) for electric motors, and IP66 for equipment exposed to pressure washing. Gearboxes must have radial seals resistant to fine abrasive dust, which otherwise gets in and accelerates wear of the internal bearings. Cooling matters as much as sealing - a totally enclosed motor cools less easily, so the usable power available may be lower than for an equivalent open motor; check the service factor at the real temperature in the hall, not just at the catalogue temperature.

    Which dust filters are suitable for capturing cement dust?

    Bag filters are a widespread solution for large volumes of gas with cement dust, with a polyester filter medium or, for higher temperatures, glass fibre with a PTFE membrane, which increases capture efficiency and reduces cleaning frequency. Cartridge filters suit smaller flow rates or limited space, with a large filtration area in a compact volume. Correct sizing (air-to-cloth ratio) and compliance with the emission thresholds under BAT/BREF matter both for environmental compliance and for the life of the filter bags.

    How often should drive belts be replaced on mills and crushers?

    There is no universal interval - it depends on the transmitted load, the belt speed, the temperature in the hall and exposure to abrasive dust, which accelerates wear of the contact surface. As a general guide, check the belts at every planned shutdown for cracks, glazing on the contact surface (a sign of slip) or excessive stretch, and replace them preventively before complete failure - a belt that breaks unplanned stops production, not just costs the price of the belt. A synchronous (toothed) belt instead of a V-belt can reduce slip and increase life under variable load.

    Which bearings are suitable for cement mills and crushers?

    This equipment has heavy, combined (radial and axial) loads and often runs at relatively low speeds with strong vibration - spherical roller bearings (which tolerate shaft misalignment) are the standard choice for the main mill bearings, while tapered or cylindrical roller bearings cover other support points, depending on the type of load. Lubrication and dust sealing matter as much as the choice of bearing type - most premature failures come from contamination with abrasive dust, not from overload. We recommend periodic vibration inspections to detect wear before failure.

    What do we send for a quote on equipment for a cement plant?

    For filters: the gas flow rate, the temperature, the type of dust and the emission threshold required. For belts and bearings: the code on the existing equipment or the technical drawing of the shaft/wheel. For pneumatic conveying blowers: the material flow rate, the conveying distance and the pressure required. For automation: the type of sensor and the existing process diagram. The more complete the information, the closer the quote is to the real need, and for common consumables (filter bags, belts, bearings) the lead time is 24–72 h when the item is available locally or at the supplier.
