OYAK decides once again for KHD’s COMFLEX® roller press technology for clinker grinding at Aslan Cimento in Turkey

OYAK Aslan Cimento Sanayii T.A.S., awarded KHD Humboldt Wedag a contract for engineering and delivery of equipment to upgrade its cement grinding line. OYAK’s 7th KHD roller press will be installed at its plant in Darica-Kocaeli, Turkey.

The contract to install a new COMFLEX® grinding system will increase the capacity of cement grinding unit no. 1, by more than 100% and save approx. 20% energy, allowing Aslan Cimento to maintain their position as one of the most significant companies in the Marmara region.

KHD’s scope includes the engineering and delivery of mechanical and electrical equipment, as well as advisory supervision of erection and commissioning for the new COMFLEX® SC20-3250. This will be KHD’s 4th COMFLEX® grinding unit and 15th roller press system with V-Separator in Turkey.

The core equipment to be designed and delivered by KHD, as specified in this contract, includes:

Clinker Grinding System / COMFLEX® SC20-3250

  • Roller Press RPZ 20-170/180 with ROLCOX® system for control and monitoring
  • Cascade separator, type VS 620 as static classifier
  • High efficiency separator SEPMASTER, type SKS-VC 3250 as dynamic classifier
  • System fan HKF 190/280

The new COMFLEX® system will be integrated with the existing ball milll system. However, one of the primary reasons Aslan Cimento chose KHD’s COMFLEX® for this project is it‘s ability to produce finished product without a ball mill unit.

With the installation of a COMFLEX® grinding system, in its newest design, Aslan Cimento, will have a system that is equipped with the most advanced grinding technology in the market.

The commissioning of the new COMFLEX® system is planned for the 2016.
