Askale Cimento has awarded KHD with two new COMFLEX grinding units for two of its plants in Turkey. In Akoluk, the new COMFLEX system will be installed in front of a new 100 tph ball mill. In Bilecik, the COMFLEX unit will allow Askale Cimento to increase the existing capacity from 100 tph to 210 tph, at 3800 Blaine. Between 2006 and 2011 KHD supplied three kiln lines to Askale plants in Askale, Van and Gumushane.

KHD’s scope includes engineering, as well as the supply of mechanical and electrical equipment. KHD will also supervise the erection and commissioning of the new systems.

The core equipment of the COMFLEX® SC16-3500 clinker grinding system includes:

Roller Press RPS 16-170/180 with ROLCOX® system for control and monitoring.
Cascade separator, type VS 618 as static classifier.
High efficiency separator SEPMASTER, type SKS-VC 3500 as dynamic classifier.
System fan HKSK 212/275.

Commissioning of both COMFLEX® systems is planned for the first part of 2017.

With this new order KHD has now sold six COMFLEX® plants in Turkey. Other COMFLEX® systems are in operation in Denizli, KCS, Aslan and Batisöke.
