Maintenance Methods of Lime Kiln Equipment

What Should be Known When Maintaining an Environmentally Friendly Lime Kiln?

Lime kiln equipment is a primary lime production equipment used in industrial production. This equipment can perform relatively convenient automated operations in harsh production environments where pressure and temperature are high and humans cannot survive. It can improve the production efficiency of lime and reduce enterprise costs. In addition, compared with traditional lime kilns, its advantages also include small pollution and a certain beneficial effect on environmental protection. Therefore, it can be said to be a very useful production equipment.

When using an environmentally friendly lime kiln, attention should be paid to maintenance. The following introduces the relevant content of lime kiln maintenance. Lime kiln maintenance includes removing the kiln skin, dismantling bricks and masonry, and cleaning. Generally, about 10-12 hours after the lime kiln is cooled, the kiln skin and brick dismantling work are carried out when the temperature inside the kiln is above 90℃. Therefore, the work is carried out under high temperature and high dust conditions, and workers should wear protective masks.

When using a diesel engine to drive the equipment, it is generally not recommended to use it under high temperature and high dust conditions. The diesel engine is not resistant to high temperatures, and high dust will block the air filter and radiator, causing equipment failures and affecting work. The size of the kiln door will affect the machine, and attention should be paid to this. The brick dismantling and kiln skin removal are crushed using a hammer, and there will be debris and kiln skin collapse. For safety reasons, operators should stay away from the ground and avoid being on the machine. When entering the kiln door, the width and height of the brick-making machine should be small, otherwise it cannot enter the kiln door. The power of the hammer should be large so that the work can be completed quickly.

Introduction to Maintenance Methods of Lime Kiln Equipment

The lime vertical kiln production line is a professional kiln furnace equipment process for calcining active lime. However, lime vertical kiln equipment needs to be regularly maintained and repaired, just like other equipment, by checking for leaks and faults, eliminating abnormalities, and cleaning and lubricating as needed. As we know, the working conditions of lime kiln equipment are relatively harsh, so timely maintenance and repair are necessary after use.

Below, we will introduce the maintenance methods of lime kiln equipment based on the instructions provided by the equipment manufacturer:

  • Timely check the use of bearings and other connections of the equipment. If there are any problems such as fracture or detachment, they should be replaced promptly. At the same time, we also need to do a good job of lubrication to ensure the smooth operation of the equipment.
  • Regularly check the operation of the power core motor of the lime vertical kiln equipment, as well as the temperature of the stator, rotor, and bearings to ensure that they are within the allowed range.
  • Always check the operation of the reducer, whether the bearings are vibrating and whether it is running properly.
  • Check whether the oil supply of the reducer is normal, and whether the cooling efficiency is good. In winter, the oil temperature should not exceed 45°C, and in summer, it should not exceed 55°C.
  • Frequently check the gear transmission device for abnormal noises, smooth operation, and any looseness.
  • Check whether the spring plate of the large gear of the lime kiln is cracked, whether the connecting screws are loose, and whether there is any radial or Uranus swing of the large gear.
  • Check the meshing between the large and small gears, and whether the bottom of the tooth or the gap between teeth is too large.
  • Check whether the gear is oiled, whether the solvent is soft, whether the oil on the gear is sufficient, whether the viscosity is appropriate, and whether there is any abnormal smoke.
  • Conduct a 5 to 6-minute inspection before each shift and check the working records, quality inspection reports, temperature records, and power supply voltage data when changing shifts.
  • Regularly add corresponding types of lubricating oil to each part of the machinery to facilitate better equipment operation.
  • Regularly check all mechanical power parts of the lime kiln equipment to ensure normal operation. Regularly reinforce all connecting and fixing parts to prevent loosening of equipment parts and affect normal work efficiency.

Adhering to the maintenance and inspection of lime vertical kiln equipment can avoid production line downtime and increase the service life of the equipment.

How to Calculate the Profit of an Eco-Friendly Lime Kiln?

Many customers and friends have asked about the profit of an eco-friendly lime kiln and how much the latest profit is. Below, let’s take a detailed look at how much investment is required for an eco-friendly lime kiln.

How much profit can be earned from an eco-friendly lime kiln?

The entire trial operation process of an eco-friendly lime kiln takes about 8-10 months. Depending on the actual situation, the construction date needs to be determined for special geographic locations. Of course, the construction cost of a lime rotary kiln production line is also relatively high. Currently, the total cost of a daily production line of 500 tons of eco-friendly lime kiln in the market is above 18 million. However, the lime rotary kiln can burn evenly, and the produced lime has relatively high activity.

The selling price of a 52-yuan lime is 350 yuan/ton, so the profit from producing one ton of lime is 52 yuan.

Here, I can only give you an approximate price. Under standard configuration, the equipment for a daily production line of 150 tons of eco-friendly active lime kiln is about 4.5 million. Of course, this is the price given to you under the premise of ensuring equipment quality.

Eco-friendly lime kiln manufacturers can provide one-stop services such as design, construction, equipment production, and equipment installation of energy-saving and environmentally friendly lime kilns for enterprises. Such manufacturers have certain strength and are a good choice for us to build lime kilns. The ability of a lime kiln construction manufacturer to provide energy-saving and environmentally friendly lime kilns is an important indicator.

Since we mentioned the profit of a lime kiln, the cost of burning one ton of lime in a lime kiln must be calculated. Only then can the profit of burning one ton of lime be calculated based on the local selling price of lime.
