Calcite Powder Grinding Plant in Russia

Calcite Powder Grinding Plant in Russia

Calcite powder grinding plant case in Russia. HGM ultrafine mill producing 800-1250 mesh calcite powder for paint and plastic. Cold-climate installation and operation.

This case study presents a detailed account of a real-world grinding mill installation project by LIMING, including project background, equipment selection rationale, installation process, commissioning results, and ongoing operational performance. The information is based on actual project data and customer feedback, providing valuable reference for similar projects.

Cold-Climate Project

A calcite processor in the Ural Mountains region of Russia required a grinding plant capable of operating in temperatures as low as -30 degrees Celsius. The calcite ore was high-grade with 96% whiteness.

Cold-Weather Modifications

The HGM100L mill was modified for cold-climate operation: heated bearing housings with thermostatic control, insulated air ducts, anti-freeze in the hydraulic system, and a heated control room. The mill building was insulated and maintained at a minimum of 5 degrees Celsius during operation.

Production Results

The plant produced 6 t/h at 1250 mesh calcite powder with 95% whiteness retention. The cold-weather modifications added 15% to equipment cost but ensured reliable year-round operation. The mill has operated for 3 winters without cold-related downtime, serving paint and plastic markets across the CIS region.

Project Insights & Lessons Learned

This project demonstrates the importance of proper equipment selection, professional installation, and comprehensive operator training for successful grinding mill operations. Key success factors include thorough material analysis before equipment selection, adherence to installation specifications, regular preventive maintenance, and prompt response to operational issues. LIMING's comprehensive service framework addresses each of these factors, ensuring long-term equipment reliability and customer satisfaction.
