Classroom training – Maintenance – LOESCHE Mill LM 3+3 Clinker / Slag 21-May-14 2

1. Main assembly groups
Function:
 The mill is a negative pressure, air-swept machine for grinding and drying the feed.
 The feed lies upon the table and is crushed by the rollers.
 The feed is directed by centrifugal force under the S-rollers which prepare it by de-aerating and
partially compressing the loose particles together.
 The S-rollers are held at a distance above the grinding plate in their lightweight rocker arms.
 The M-rollers, mounted in massive rocker arms, grind the prepared feedstock largely by
compression. The force is created by the weight of the roller and an additional force generated
by the hydraulic system.
 The rollers are rotated by friction with the grinding bed. Sensors on the rocker arm and stop-
buffers (spring-loaded travel limiters) prevent any metallic contact between the rollers and the
table.

Function:
 The crushed grit is thrown outwards by centrifugal force and flows over the rim of the table.
Here it is caught in the gas stream which flows upwards through the louvre ring. The dust/gas
mixture flows through the grinding chamber, which is enclosed by the mill upper housing with
its special armour lining, to the classifier. This is mounted or welded to the flange of the mill
upper housing.
 The mill can be started in filled condition (after a short stop) by the mill motor without the help
of an auxiliary drive. To off-load the motor, the rollers are hydraulically lifted.

2.1 Mill stand
Function:
 The mill stand serves as the base of the mill.
 The mill stand supports the grinding mechanism and the power transmission
components together with the pedestals.

2. Maintenance
2.1 Mill stand
Maintenance:
 After start-up tighten bearing cover bolts. Repeat this after eight operating hours and
finally secure screw heads as indicated in the drawing.
 Hexagonal nuts inside and outside the pedestal must be tightened and after
approximately 100 hours of mill operation, the nuts are to be secured by welding in
accordance with instructions given on the assembly drawing.
 Hexagonal head bolts of the gearbox foot flange must be tightened and secured as
indicated in the gearbox documentation.
 Wedges must be inspected after approx. 24 hours of operation and tightened if

necessary. Wedges are then lightly tack-welded.
 Check whether the reject gate (flap) closes soundly, change sealing if necessary.

2.2 Mill body incl. lining
Function:
Upper housing:
 Formation of a grinding chamber retaining and guiding the dust/gas mixture between the table
and the classifier.
 Sealing of rocker arm leadings through the housing.
 Supporting the forces from the S-roller systems via the integrated S-covers.
 Supporting of classifier welded to the flange of LM upper housing.
Lining:
 High wear resistant steel plates protect the LM housing.
 The mounting technology of the lining guarantees a firm seat, until the plates are completely
worn.

Visual Check:
 lining plates inside mill body
Maintenance:
 replace worn lining plates
Interval:
check wear monthly.
shift interval according to the specific „wear
behaviour“ of the mill

Maintenance:
 On a scale at the M-rocker arm a pointer on the cover of LM upper housing shows the position of
the M-roller.
Before operation of the Mill the pointer is set to "0" when the M-roller is lowered completely.
During operation of the mill, the scale will move along the stationary pointer. It will be possible
then to obtain readings both of the mean grinding bed thickness and of thickness variations.
 Check bolts of S-cover for proper torquing at semi-annual intervals.
 Renew the sealing for the doorframe at regular intervals for preventing the admittance of air into
the grinding chamber.
 Worn plates are to be replaced, before the base material of the housing is attacked.
 With screwed on lining-plates new screws and sealing rings have to be used. Observe assembly
instruction.
 Equal large liner plates can be exchanged also among themselves.

2.3 Table
Function:
 The primary function of the table is to support the grinding bed and transmit the force
generated by the rollers into the gearbox below.
 It also transmits the torque of the gearbox into the grinding zone.
 Together with the ring duct the table creates a circular chamber out of which the
primary gas flows over the louvre ring into the grinding chamber.
 Beside the rollers the table is the second grinding tool of the mill.

shift interval according to the specific
„wear behaviour“ of the mill

2.3 Table
Maintenance:
 Control grinding plates monthly.
 The grinding plate is because of its structure very brittle. Cracked segments have to
be exchanged however only if broken pieces find their way onto the grinding path
and cause holes. Usually the cracked grinding plate segments wedge themselves so
tightly together that they will not have to be exchanged before the normal wear
period has expired.
 The regular exchange of the grinding plate should be made at the latest when the
normal production rate cannot be maintained. If the wear is largely confined to the
roller tires then the grinding plate need not be changed.
 The holes in the grinding plate have to be checked regularly on permeability (s.a.
Operating Instructions, "Grinding Parts cpl.").

2.4 Auxiliary parts for table
Table-support
Hydraulic jack

2.5 M-Rocker arm
Function:
 The M-rocker arm transmits the forces produced by the hydraulic double acting cylinders onto the
roller and the grinding bed. The hydraulic cylinders are linked at the jointed pin at the lower end of
the M-rocker arm.
 Hydraulic cylinder and M-rocker arm are arranged in such a way that the bearing reaction forces
are always directed into the pedestal. By separation of the central rocker arm from the fork the
roller can be swung out, without having to divide fork and springing cylinder.
 By means of a bore with inlet pipe on the lever seal air is delivered to a coaxial gap between the
roller and the M-rocker arm. It prevents the ingress of dust into the cylinder bearings.
 A geometrically adapted sealing box seals the M-rocker arm against the mill body. The rounded
surfaces of the sealing box rotate concentrically about the rocker arm axle.

2.5 M-Rocker arm
Visual check:
 bolts
 grease pipeline connections
Maintenance:
 change wear rings of sealing air

 check bearing clearance
 change bearings
Interval:
visual check weekly
Maintenance:
check bearings yearly
check sealing air gap in 6 month
„wear behavior“ of the mill

2.5 M-Rocker arm
Servicing:
 The clamping connection between the fork and the axle must be tight. Even a small amount of
clearance will cause deformation of the bore in the fork and could lead to eventual breakage of the
fork.
 The bolts of the axial thrust rings must be checked for tightness. The cap must be removed for this
purpose.
 All bearings are to be lubricated regularly. An interruption of the flow of lubricant will lead to seizure
of the bearings.
 Transparent hose - if exists - which leads from the sealing air chamber down underneath the M-
rocker arm axle should be inspected to see if there is any oil present inside it. Should leakage oil be
present here, then check the rollers slip ring seal.
 The striker plate on the lower end of the fork must be exchanged if it becomes deformed through
frequent contact with the buffer.

2.6 Swinging out rollers
Function:
 The hydraulic swinging mechanism enables fast changing of the grinding parts in the LOESCHE-
Mill.
 With the help of a hydraulic cylinder the roller is swung out of the LM-upper housing and the
rocker arm is supported.
 The mounting area above the table, given with swung out roller, facilitates the substitution of lining
segments.

(prior to use of auxiliary parts):
 change oil
 bleed off air of swing out cylinder
 clean tank
Important:
proper dismounting and mounting of

Interval:
visual Check: Prior to use of auxiliary
parts

Servicing:
 Check Pins and mounting brackets before each swinging-out for possible damage and rust defects.
 Hydraulic cylinder and piston rod have to be protected against external damage.
 Store the high-pressure hoses in a safe place. When replacing them, hoses rated at a burst pressure
of more than 200 bar (2900 psi) must be used.
 Store hydraulic cylinder vertically after use. The piston weight deforms otherwise the piston rod seals
durably, what leads to leakages!

2.7 Grinding parts

2.7 Grinding parts
Maintenance:
Dismantling of Roller
 For dismantling the roller, i.e. to extract it from the rocker arm lifting eye nuts and/or eye bolts
are provided.
 The pressing off cylinder is to be bolted against the face of the rocker arm.
 With the help of the hand operated pump of the table dismantling aid the pressing off cylinder
looses the conical sleeve on the outside of the rocker arm and presses the roller axle further
out of the second conical sleeve unit in the rocker arm.
 Then the roller can be extracted from the arm by means of a crane.

2.7 Grinding parts
Maintenance:
Installation of Roller
 Make sure that the conical clamping surfaces are bright clean. Treat the surfaces with
bearing lubricant to prevent fretting corrosion.
 Position of the slot on the face of the roller axle must be in the correct position, according to
the drawing "Roller cpl.".
 The slit in the taper sleeve must be plugged tightly with lead, according to the drawing
"Rocker Arm cpl.“.
 The roller is tightened in the position which is indicated on the drawing "Roller cpl.“.
 If a temperature sensor exists, see operating instructions "Temperature Sensor for Roller“.

2.7 Grinding parts
Maintenance:
Change of roller tyre

 Danger of Accident!
Check the condition of the lifter before usage.
Pay attention to the maximum permissible load which the lifter may carry.
The lifter may only be used for the transport of roller tyres. Removal by force from the hub is
not permitted.
- Swing out roller and the rocker arm out of the mill.
- Loose the nuts of the hammer bolts.
- Remove the hammer bolts and the clamping ring of the roller.
- Loose the roller tyre from the roller hub! Therefore heat the roller tyre all around evenly with a
gentle flame.

2.8 M-Roller
Function:
 The rollers are tools carrying out comminution.

behavior“ of the mill

2.8 M-Roller
Maintenance:
 Danger of damaging components!

All parts must be checked regularly for impingement wear at regular intervals and replaced if
necessary.
 Ensure that the mill runs smoothly (make sure that the slides and flaps in the gas lines close
tightly; check the height of the dam ring ...).
 Keep the height of the dam ring relative to the grinding path exactly uniform around the
complete perimeter.
 Set the roller force correctly in accordance with the springs diagram.
 Check the Slip-Ring Sealing regularly.

2.8 M-Roller
Maintenance:
Checking the wear of the roller tyre

 The wear of the grinding parts should be checked regularly in order to accumulate important
data regarding the projected life expectancy and to permit comparisons in case of changes in
grinding stock and grade of materials of grinding parts.
 Important for meaningful measurements is the comparability. LOESCHE has provided the
means for such measurements with the tire profile ruler.
 Because this measuring device is designed for various sizes of rollers, the exact adjustment
and fixing can be made only when the unit has been fitted to the roller, according to the
drawing "Tire Profile Ruler cpl."
 The ruler should be initially adjusted to have a gap of approx. 10 mm to the outer surface of
the roller tire. This is necessary since new grinding rollers may vary slightly on account of the
rough surface of the cast tire. The size of this gap in new condition must be noted and all
subsequent measurements must have this value subtracted from them.

2.10 S-Roller
Function:
 The S-rollers serve for preparation of the grinding bed.
 They work with low specific pressures and theoretically do not exert any sliding movement on
the grinding bed. Thus, roller wear is minimum.

2.10 S-Roller
Visual check:
 attachment bolts of roller axle and tire
 wear of guard
 oil leakages
Maintenance:
 change wear rings of sealing air assembly
 change slip ring seal
 change worn wear parts
 clean air filter
Interval:

Maintenance:
change slip ring seal after 15000 h

2.10 S-Roller
Maintenance:
 Danger of damaging components!

All parts must be checked regularly for impingement wear at regular intervals and replaced if
necessary.
 For disassembly of the S-roller, the latter will be swung to the outside together with the LM
upper housing cover.
 When refitting an S-roller, which is clamped in the S-rocker arm via clamping sleeves, make
sure to pay attention to the position of slots in the conical clamping sleeves as shown in the
drawing! According to the design drawing ("S-Rocker Arm cpl.") the slot in taper sleeve must
be made gastight by caulking with lead, in order to prevent sealing gas from escaping and/or
dust from penetrating.

2.10 S-Roller
Maintenance:
 Check the Slip-Ring sealing regularly (see operating instructions "Slip-Ring Sealing cpl.").
 Check the oil level with the aid of the oil dipstick supplied
 Check the rolling bearings:

- Seal the holes in the roller axle to prevent oil getting out through it.
- Bring the S-roller into a vertical position with the aid of the swinging-out device.
- Remove the hub cover, check the bearings.
 - The O-ring must always be renewed before refitting the hub cover. Only moulded O-rings as
specified in the parts list may be used!
 - The cover screws must be tightened up and locked in accordance with the details in the
drawing.
 For occasional checking of the spherical roller bearing, the inspection cover in the hub cover
can be removed. When replacing the hub cover, take care that it seals adequately and that
the bolts are secured.

2.13 Spring assembly
Function:
Spring assembly M-Roller

 The hydropneumatic spring system with the HSLM hydraulic cabinet permits the roller force to be
adapted to the material to be ground and to keep the grinding bed thickness constant within close
tolerances
 It consists of two separate systems, the so-called operating system which provides pressure to the
rod-side of the cylinder and the counterpressure system which supplies pressure to the piston side.
The control system is regulated according to the mill feed rate
 Increase (Raising) of Operating Pressure

 Reduction (Lowering) of Operating Pressure

2.14 Cabinets
Maintenance:
HSLM
 During the first 8 hours following initial start-up, each filter insert should be checked hourly and
replaced, if found to be contaminated. After that we recommend a weekly filter check and an
exchange as necessary.
 At the same time the air filters at the far ends of the roller shafts should be inspected.
 After 3500 hours of operation or at the latest after one year, empty all oil from rollers and cabinet.
To remove oil sludge from the bottom of the tank, unscrew the rear inspection cover.
 In case the oil does not circulate properly, check the suction lines and the return line sight glasses
for tightness as well as the oil temperature and viscosity. If the cool oil is too viscous, the only
remedy is to heat it sufficiently and to reduce the pressure setting of the flow-limiting valve.

2.14 Cabinets
Maintenance:
 To check the suction line for tightness, proceed as follows:

- Unscrew both hose connections at the end of the roller shafts.
- Let the free hose ends hang into a clean container filled with four or more litres of oil.
- Switch on the pumps. The oil level inside the container must be held at the level of the suction
hose inlet connection.
- When the suction hose end is lowered, the oil level should drop again.

2.15 N2 accumulators

Interval:
visual check weekly
Maintenance:
check nitrogen pressure once a week,
if no pressure loss, check every 4 months,
if no pressure drop check yearly

Filling of Hydraulic Accumulators :
 Filling and Replenishing of Gas

Nitrogen gas only may be used for filling or replenishing of the rubber bladders inside the
accumulator and/or the piston accumulators. In connection with oil, oxygen or air may give rise to
explosions!
 Positioning of Valves (in case of N2 Filling Pressure Checking and N2 Pressure Increase)
In order to check both the hydraulic bladder accumulators and the hydraulic piston accumulators
for correct nitrogen filling pressure, it will be absolutely necessary to completely relieve the
pressure on the oil side. To this effect,
- the main switch should be set to the "Manual" position,
- stop cocks should be opened according to the function table of the "Hydraulic
Scheme HSLM".
In case of non-observance of this recommendation, an incorrect N2 pressure will be indicated or
gas will be replenished. In addition, the accumulator bladders may be destroyed

2.17 Mill drive
Function:
 The mill motor will drive the dish via the flexible coupling and the mill gear. The dish is directly
bolted to the gear output flange.
 The mill motor is supported by the motor frame which will be screwed and pined to the motor base
frame embedded in concrete after alignment of mill motor in relation to mill gear.
 The coupling guard ensures that no accidental contact of rotating parts will be possible during
grinding.
 In case of damage and after dismantling of mill motor (complete with motor frame) and lifting of
dish the mill gear may be withdrawn for haul off from underneath the mill on so-called track rails
welded onto the motor base frame embedded in concrete.

2.18 Classifier
Function:
 The ground and dried material flows into the air-flow classifier from below together with the carrier
air.
 The guide vanes, integrated into the classifier lower housing, redirect the dust/air mixture from an
upward flow into a tangential flow. The ribbed rotor rotates in the same direction as the tangential
flow.
 In the gap between the guide vanes and the ribs of the rotor, the dust/air mixture is classified.
 Larger (oversize) particles are flung outwards and sink under the influence of gravity. After leaving
the gap, oversize particles are collected in a grit collector and are returned into the mill for
repeated grinding. The conical coarse hopper creates an orderly circulation of coarse particles
within the mill. It separates the outside rising dust/air mixture from the inside back streaming
oversized particles.
 Finished material passes through the ribbed rotor together with the carrier air and leaves the
classifier via the outlet pipe in the classifier.

2.18 Classifier
Function:
 Here the guide vanes of the classifier are not adjustable, thus the fineness of the finished material
depends only on the rotor speed. Increasing of the rotor speed means finer finished material,
reducing of the rotor speed means coarser material.
 The direction in which the rotor turns depends on the flow vortex of the louvre ring. Both directions
are identical.

2.19 Classifier
Maintenance:
 Carry out regular visual checks of the machine in order to spot any possible damage early.
 Check all screw connections regularly for tightness. Treat screw threads with corrosion protection
in order to avoid friction damage and corrosion.
 Check seals regularly for problem free operation, renew if required.
 According to the maintenance regulations all attachment screws must be regularly checked for
tightness. Any ground material sticking to rotating parts must be removed immediately.
 When replacing the rotary shaft seals, care must be taken that they are installed with the correct
orientation, as shown in the drawing.
 It must be checked during inspections that a sufficiently large grease collar has formed at the
rotary shaft seals.

2.19 Classifier
Maintenance:
 The lining (non-standard), the rotor blades and guide vanes are to be regularly inspected for wear.
To this end, the inspection covers in the upper and lower housings must be opened, respectively
removed.
 In bigger classifiers with a rotor which can be entered, the replacement of worn blades and guide
vanes must be done from the inside of the rotor. For replacing the guide vanes the rotor blades
must be partially removed.
 In smaller classifiers, where the rotor cannot be entered, to replace worn blades and guide vanes
either the rotor or the guide vane carrier segments must be moved down into the inside of the mill.
In both cases the grit funnel which consists of several parts must be dismounted and the rollers
must possibly be swung out.
 When exchanging the blades the rotor should be sufficiently balanced. To enable this, the blades
are individually weighed and sorted in such a way that every 2 blades with approximately the
same weight are installed opposite to one another.
 After changing the guide vanes and tightening the nuts, tack weld the nuts to prevent loosening.

2.19 Classifier
Maintenance:
 Wear on the guide vane carrier can be repaired with a hard facing welding electrode.
