we want to increase our kiln rpm what type of calculation we do?
what are the perameter can efffect?
present data:
kiln RPM:4.2
Load:400A
Feed:300TPH
lenght of kiln:64 meter
dia:4.5mtr
lsf:appox98
slop:4%
You may not need to change the gearbox ratio, it may be possible to just increase the motor speed with your frequency inverter on the motor (assuming you have this type of variable speed). The gearbox, girthgear and pinion arrangement would need to be checked to ensure it can still operate safely (Service Factor) within the new parameters?
It is all down to "Torque" and as we know, torque reduces with speed increase, it would very much depend on the amount of extra power you may require and of course, whether your kiln CSA can take any further increase in load?
