Overview

Cement production is a complex process beginning with the extraction and grinding of raw materials...

The manufacturing process involves grinding limestone and clay into a fine powder known as raw meal, which is then heated in a cement kiln to a sintering temperature of up to 1450°C. This process requires equipment that can withstand extreme conditions. Our products offer plant operators and equipment manufacturers in the cement industry longer service life in these demanding operating environments.

Cement is a non-metallic material with hydraulic binding properties. When mixed with water, it forms a paste that sets by forming hydrates. After setting, cement retains its strength, making it essential for construction and manufacturing applications.

The cement industry is vital to the construction industry, producing essential materials for concrete, which is made by mixing cement with sand or gravel. However, the sector faces environmental challenges as it produces emissions such as dust, carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides, which affect the atmosphere. Despite these concerns, cement remains fundamental to building the world's infrastructure.
