Instead of simply treating the symptoms, it’s really important to identify and deal with the root causes of kiln failure, such as kiln axis misalignment, kiln shell ovality/shell flex, kiln crank, and kiln axial misbalance. To keep your kiln at optimal health throughout its lifetime, we recommend our key kiln services: hot kiln alignment, and reconditioning of tyres and rollers.
Get your kiln in order
How can you get the best out of your kiln and keep production maximised? A comprehensive hot kiln alignment every two to three years helps you avoid unforeseen breakdowns and maintain full kiln availability and productivity. Let us analyse your kiln’s performance using advanced measuring techniques and customised hardware and software solutions. The alignment is carried out by an experienced kiln specialist during normal operation of the kiln, so that production can continue. We’ll help identify potential causes of failure before problems occur as part of a preventative maintenance strategy. And if you’ve already experienced an issue with your kiln, our service will diagnose the actual cause behind the problem and recommend an efficient solution. Besides evaluating the root causes of any symptoms, during a kiln alignment we also: Evaluate the kiln drive, Carry out an engineering study, Perform a visual mechanical inspection
