Lafarge North America has recently contracted with Loesche America, Inc. to install an LSKS Classifier Upgrade for their Raymond 753 mill located at their plant in Ravena, New York. In addition, Loesche America, Inc. will install five classifiers on the existing Raymond mills located at the company’s Alpena, Michigan Plant. These dynamic classifiers will allow both plants to considerably improve product fineness resulting in an increase in the overall efficiency at both facilities.
Loesche America, Inc. will be installing a Loesche LSKS High Efficiency Classifier to the existing cement raw mill (LM 28.4) at Lehigh Portland Cement Company in Leeds, Alabama. The classifier along with auxiliary equipment which includes a rotary valve, rocker arm upgrade and lubrication unit will allow the plant to improve their overall grinding capacity. This project represents the second Loesche classifier installation on one of Lehigh’s raw mills, the first installation took place in 2003 at the Lehigh Southwest Cement Company in Tehachapi, California. For more information on these installations, contact: Mr. Chris Oesch, Director of Project Management coesch@loescheamerica.com
