COMMON MECHANICAL SPARE PARTS IN A CEMENT PLANT
1. Crusher Spares
Critical wear and replacement parts of crushers for efficient crushing of raw materials.
- Hammers, Blow bars, Jaw plates, Liners
- Rotor assemblies, Bearings, Grizzly bars
- Toggle plates and seats
Working:
Breaks limestone, clay, shale into smaller pieces for processing.
2. Raw Mill / Cement Mill Spares
- Liners, Grinding media, Mill internals
- Girth gears, Pinions, Trunnion bearings
Working:
Raw Mill grinds raw materials into raw meal. Cement Mill produces finished cement.
3. Kiln Spares
- Tyres, Rollers, Girth gears, Seals
- Support bearings, Thrust rollers, Chains
Working:
Rotary kiln heats raw meal (~1450°C) to form clinker.
4. Cooler Spares
- Grate plates, Fans, Crusher hammers
- Roller bearings, Hydraulics
Working:
Cools clinker rapidly from 1450°C to ~100°C, improving energy efficiency.
5. Conveyor System Spares
- Belts, Idlers, Pulleys, Scrapers
- Gearboxes, Motors, Chains
Working:
Ensures smooth transport of limestone, clinker, gypsum, and cement.
6. Rotary Equipment Spares
- Seals, Couplings, Bearings, Sleeves
- Shaft assemblies
Working:
Maintain rotating machinery like kilns, mills, fans, compressors, and dryers.
7. Gearbox & Drive Spares
- Gears, Bearings, Shafts, Housings
- Lubrication systems
Working:
Gearboxes reduce speed & increase torque. Drives control speed and torque.
8. Hydraulic & Pneumatic Spares
- Cylinders, Pumps, Valves
- Filters, Hoses
Working:
Hydraulics use oil for high-force tasks, pneumatics use compressed air for fast operations.
9. Miscellaneous
- Fasteners, Gaskets, Expansion joints
- Heat exchangers, Valves & flanges
