Smoother cement production thanks to the magnetic drum MBZ 304 N 300 GRIZZLY (case study)
Initial situation
After a change in the iron-bearing raw material, coarse metal particles started to appear in the grinding circuit of a cement plant. They accumulated in air shafts, slowed down material transport, and caused production losses. A solution was needed to reliably remove these iron particles and restore a fluent production operation.
Problem solution
Following an operation analysis, a housed Magnetic drum MBZ 304 N 300 was installed for the continuous and automatic separation of ferromagnetic particles from bulk materials.
Thanks to powerful neodymium magnets, it captures even fine iron particles directly in the material flow, without interrupting the flow of material. The result? Stable raw material flow, fewer downtimes, and more reliable operation.
Benefits of the used equipment – Magnetic drum MBZ 304 N 300 GRIZZLY
After the successful installation, production stabilized and the issues with metal build-up disappeared.
The efficiency of the equipment was so convincing that the customer ordered a second identical drum for another part of the line.
A simple measure delivered a big effect – higher cement quality, fluent operation, and calmer work for the operators.
Advantages of the magnetic drum MBZ 304 N 300 GRIZZLY
- 5-year warranty – proof of long-term reliability and product quality
- Automatic cleaning / separation without a need of interrupting the flow of material
- High efficiency even with heavy, abrasive materials
- Robust, long-life design
- Automatic discharge of captured metal particles
Equipment used: Magnetic drum MBZ 304 N 300 GRIZZLY
Conclusion
Installing the housed Magnetic drum MBZ 304 N 300 helped the cement plant improve material flow, reduce downtimes, and stabilize production.
This example shows that even a single technical upgrade can have a strong impact on overall production efficiency.
