FLSmidth to supply new mill to India Cements Ltd

FLSmidth will deliver an OK vertical cement mill to The India Cements Ltd, one of the leading cement producers in southern India. The new OK 52-4 mill system will be installed on The India Cement’s production line in Shankar Nagar in Tamil Nadu.

The Danish engineering company will carry out system engineering, procurement, and machinery supply. The new mill will have production capacity of 200 tph of ordinary portland cement at 3500 Blaine.

The contract also includes the supply of gear units from FLSmidth MAAG Gear.

The new contract “reflects the strong position we have had with India Cements Ltd for almost a decade,” said Carsten Riisberg Lund, Country Head of FLSmidth India.

According to FLSmidth, the installation of the OK mill will enable the customer to reduce energy costs, as it will replace a ball mill at the plant. The contract will be fully executed by the end of 2018.

A previous version of this article referred to the mill as an OK 53-4. It is in fact an OK 52-4. This has been corrected above.
