VRM Cement mill-The largest in the world

Loesche vertical roller mills are the most efficient mills in the world and achieve very high throughputs. They are extremely maintenance friendly. Service tasks can be carried out quickly. Downtimes are reduced to a minimum. The Loesche grinding principle combines a horizontal grinding table with large tapered roller under hydropneumatic loading- the best possible compromise between output and wear. The product quality can be enhanced by altering the classifier speed. All Loesche mills can be started with grinding rollers raised. Metal to metal contact between grinding parts does not occur. Their quiet, smooth operation is appreciated.

In Bharathi Cement the most advanced vertical roller mill from Loesche, Germany has been commissioned. The mill has a capacity of producing 360 MT/hour and is equipped with 6,700 Kw gearbox. The mill is designed to produce a range of high quality cements such as Ordinary Portland Cement, Portland Pozzolana Cement, Portland Slag cement and ground slag at varying fineness. It has a rated capacity of 360 tph opc at 3000 Blaine and 300 tph of Ground slag at 4000 Blaine. The high flexibility of the system enables to produce cements of 6 different types from the same mill. Switching from one product to other can be done with in minutes.

The great flexibility of Loesche mills:

A 6 roller mill can be operated as a 4 roller mill with a capacity of around 80%. A 4 roller mill can be operated as a 2 roller mill with a capacity of 60%.

The VRM technology offers several benefits over ball mill technology. With VRM technology faster initial and final setting times are achieved. This is evident from Bharathi Cement initial setting time of 130±30 minutes when compared to that of 250±30 minutes of competitor brands. The final setting times of ours are 250±30 minutes where as for competitor it is 320±30 minutes.

It is obvious that lesser setting time would lead to high early strength development, and quick removal of formwork is possible in construction when good construction practices are followed.

The early setting times and the rapid strength gain makes Bharathi cement ideal for

Residential, Commercial and industrial structures
Bridges, Dams
Prestressed concrete works
Slipform concreting
PQC works
Concrete blocks, electric poles, paver blocks etc.
All other RCC works where early deshuttering of formwork is necessary
