As a material with high hardness and high abrasiveness, the processing difficulty of feldspar has always been a matter of concern. Especially in Brazil, an important global hub for ceramic production, the processing efficiency and quality of feldspar directly affect the quality and production cost of ceramic products.
Project Overview
Against the backdrop of the rapid development of the ceramic industry in Brazil, the client faces an urgent need to upgrade their raw material processing equipment. In the past, the client has been using grinding equipment from European and American brands. However, with the aging of the equipment and changes in raw material characteristics, traditional equipment has gradually revealed shortcomings in wear resistance, production capacity, and energy consumption. The wear rate of the equipment has accelerated, production capacity has been difficult to improve, and energy consumption remains high. These issues severely restrict the client's production efficiency and cost control.
Processing Material: Feldspar
Product Fineness: 200 mesh
Application: Ceramic Industry
Main Equipment: LM Vertical Mill
After in-depth investigation and comparison of several brands of mills, the client ultimately chose SBM, with whom they have maintained continuous communication for the past ten years. As an advanced enterprise in the field of grinding equipment in China, SBM has been deeply engaged in the powder preparation field for nearly forty years, continuously optimizing equipment performance and quality through technological innovation and product upgrades. In particular, in the research of grinding technology for high hardness materials such as feldspar, SBM has demonstrated strong R&D capability and rich practical experience.
It is precisely based on SBM's strong comprehensive strength, deep understanding of grinding technology for high hardness materials like feldspar, and the long-standing good cooperative relationship that the client has developed a deep trust in SBM. As a result, they ultimately decided to introduce SBM LM Vertical Mill into the feldspar grinding project.
SBM has sent experienced engineers to Brazil multiple times to conduct on-site investigations, thoroughly assessing the existing production lines and facilities, including equipment conditions, production capacity, and energy consumption.
Project Challenges
The raw materials have a high silicon content, which leads to rapid wear of traditional equipment, low production capacity, and high energy consumption. The existing facility requires renovation, and the layout is complex. Additionally, dust must achieve ultra-low emissions. Based on the assessment results, SBM has developed a detailed renovation plan, including production line optimization, equipment updates, and layout adjustments.
Customized Wear-Resistant Design to Address Raw Material Challenges
To tackle the issues of poor grindability and high abrasiveness of the raw materials, SBM recommends using LM Vertical Mill made from wear-resistant materials. Its unique working principle and advanced structural design can effectively handle the processing of high hardness feldspar. Additionally, special wear-resistant treatments are applied to the parts of the system that are prone to wear, extending the service life, increasing production capacity, and reducing energy consumption, thereby creating greater economic benefits for the client.
Optimized Layout Design to Adapt to Complex Facilities
To address the issues of renovating the existing facility and its complex layout, SBM technical team considered aspects such as production line optimization, facility layout adjustments, environmental protection and safety, as well as cost control. They repeatedly optimized the design plans and developed a detailed renovation plan to be implemented in phases, ultimately resolving the constraints posed by the limited space.
Environmental Protection Dust Collection Technology for Ultra-Low Emissions
To achieve ultra-low dust emissions, SBM has equipped a larger model dust collector and utilized high-density, high-wear-resistant filter bags, creating a cleaner and more environmentally friendly production environment for the client.
After the project was put into production, SBM LM Vertical Mill demonstrated strong performance. For high hardness feldspar, the equipment's production capacity was significantly increased, energy consumption was reduced, and it operated stably and reliably, fully meeting the client's production needs. The client expressed great satisfaction with the operational performance of SBM's equipment and the quality of service, and they plan to gradually replace the existing European and American old equipment in the future to further expand production scale.
In today's world of booming industrial development, competition in the grinding equipment sector is becoming increasingly fierce. SBM actively implements a globalization strategy, leveraging its deep heritage, strong capabilities, and comprehensive service system to expand from China to the global market, becoming a trusted partner for many overseas clients.
