Thanks to the most recent wearfacing technology, concrete production companies can now significantly decrease equipment downtime and associated expenses throughout the mixing and final production stages. This strategy is key to Castolin Eutectic’s philosophy of “Pioneering Industrial Sustainability”, as optimally functioning critical equipment consumes less energy. Because of this, concrete plants can decrease their carbon impact and increase energy efficiency.
Concrete mixers and concrete-handling accessories are constantly subjected to a highly erosive, abrasive, and mobile mixture of cement, sand, aggregates and water due to the nature of their function and operation. It can withstand a lot of wear, tear and damage. However, a worn component’s energy efficiency and operating effectiveness may be reduced until it is replaced.
Increased fuel usage and, in some situations, higher material prices may result from this. Additionally, it could degrade the concrete’s quality and raise the likelihood that it would be rejected.
Castolin Eutectic has extensive experience in the development of concrete mixer shielding. The pan or drum of the mixer’s interior should be lined with protection as a place to start.
Castodur Diamond Plates (CDP®), created by Castolin Eutectic, were created for this purpose. These are readily cuttable, moldable, and adaptable to fit any mixer design and protect any surface. Compared to other options, CDP plates have been proved in tests to provide up to five times longer service life than other concrete mixer shielding options, including cast iron, heat-treated steel and polyurethane.
CDP® offers excellent protection while mixing concrete, as well as during cleaning and maintenance. Furthermore, the plates are extremely resistant to chipping and lightweight, which makes mixer transport easier.
Reduce equipment downtime, improve efficiency and reduce CO2 footprint with CDP®.
