Lubricants for raw cement plant transport Apron feeders, belt & screw conveyers, bucket elevators, stackers & reclaimers Better protection against temperature influence and shock loads During the transport of raw material and additional materials, bearings and joints are mainly influenced by excessive contamination from dust and water in combination with high temperature fluctuations. The consequence: high wear and short lifetime of the loaded components. High-quality speciality lubricants help you prevent damage; the right lubricant protects your machines against temperatures and shock loads...

Lubricants for crushing processes Crushing processes are particularly demanding for bearings, as vibrations, shocks and contamination are extremely high, and temperatures fluctuate considerably. Speciality lubricants can protect highly loaded bearings in these processes; they reduce wear, extend maintenance intervals and increase reliability. We make speciality lubricants to suit these requirements: they have the right viscosity and consistency combined with the right additives and offer reliable lubricant pumpability. They are also chemically and physically stable, contributing to long bearing...

Lubricants for crushing processes Roller presses In bearings subjected to high shock loads the lubricating film has to ensure trouble-free operation, especially as lubrication starvation, contamination or the wrong lubricant can quickly contribute to bearing failure. Factors like long lead times for delivery of expensive spares can have an adverse effect on production and cost. Typical roller press bearings are cylindrical roller bearings operating at maximum 75 °C. We need to ensure adequate lubricant film formation to prevent metal-to-metal contact between the rollers and bearing raceways....
