We worked closely with FLSmidth on this project - FLSmidth supplied all the mechanical equipment and we carried out all the installation work for Plasmor.

This project required a pair of kilns with a total length of around 50m, weighing around 100 tons to be supplied and installed. Although access on the site was good, moving the 100 ton sections to the installation point created its own problems. A new road had to be built on site to get the kilns to their final destination.

Again due to the size and weight of the lift two 250 ton matched cranes had to be used and our specialists were able to install the sections within very high tolerances of gradient. The second section of the kiln had to slot inside the first and this again needed great care on the lift.

Once the incline is established and the kiln is running the commissioning phase starts. At this point it is essential that great care is taken to align the support rollers to ensure the long life of the equipment. This is where our teams experience in heavy rotary equipment pays off and the customer reaps the rewards of our expertise.
