During its 150th anniversary celebrations Gebr Pfeiffer SE received another order from Bolu Cimento Sanayii AS, Turkey. In addition to the three MPS mills ordered in December 2013 for Ankara-Kazan works, the new order will see Gebr Pfeiffer supply a further MPS 4500 BC mill for the grinding of granulated blast-furnace slag which will be set up at Bolu works. The mill will be identical to the cement mill that is being installed in Kazan.

Featuring a 3300kW drive power, the mill is designed to reach a throughput rate of 85tph of slag ground to a product fineness of 4500-4750cm²/g. Gebr Pfeiffer’s scope will include the core components of the mill and classifier as well as the mill gearbox. The required drawings and parts lists for the local manufacture of housing and steel parts as well as documents for quality control will be produced and supplied.

The delivery of the mill scheduled to start at the end of 2014 and will have been completed by spring 2015.
