FLSmidth offers a technique to hard face a vertical roller mill giving the plant a shorter downtime. Hardfacing costs only about a third of changing the wear parts and can be done in half the time.

In a joint venture with Welding Alloys, FLSmidth has developed a technique of Hardfacing the wear segments in a vertical mill. Instead of replacing the entire segment, a new surface is welded onto the wear part. Hardfacing gives you shorter downtime, better performance, longer service life and shorter payback. Hardfacing costs only about a third of changing the wear parts and can be done in half the time.
