Gebr. Pfeiffer awarded contract by Saman Cement

The follow-up order comprises the delivery of a state-of-the-art MVR 5000 R-4 for the second production line of the Saman cement plant.

The mill will be used for the efficient grinding of cement raw material and represents another milestone in the long-standing partnership between Saman Cement and Gebr. Pfeiffer. For almost a decade, a Pfeiffer MPS 5000 B vertical roller mill has been reliably producing cement raw material for clinker production on the cement plant's first line. This follow-up order emphasises the customer's high level of satisfaction.

Saman Cement is a modern, forward-looking cement company that aims to establish itself as a leading player in the industry. That is why the company has opted for advanced Pfeiffer technology for its second production line as well. The Saman cement plant is located in the Al Mothanna province of Iraq, 38 km west of the city of Samawa, and represents an investment by Saman Cement Co.

The renowned Sinoma International Engineering Co. Ltd. from China was selected as the general contractor for this project.

The new Pfeiffer raw mill is equipped with a latest-generation SLS 4000 VR classifier. It will grind 450 tph of cement raw material to a fineness of 12% R to 0.090 mm. The cement raw material is dried from a feed moisture content of approx. 6.7% to a residual moisture of < 1%. The mill drive has a power of 4000 kW.

Commissioning of the state-of-the-art MVR vertical roller mill is scheduled for the first half of 2027 and will undoubtedly mark another important step in the success story of Saman Cement.
