FLSmidth has been awarded a contract by Lehigh Hanson Materials Ltd. for an OK 30-4 cement vertical mill to meet the increasing demand for cement in Canada. The mill will be installed at their existing Edmonton cement plant. Additional scope of supply includes a cement powder cooler, related process engineering and site advisory and commissioning services. Commissioning is scheduled to be completed in 2Q17.
FLSmidth has also signed a contract with Cementos Argos S.A. for a new OK 33-4 cement mill system, which is to be installed at their plant in Sogamaso, Colombia, just 233 km from Bogotá. This contract marks the fourth OK mill purchased by Argos, and was awarded due to strong customer preference for the OK mill technology. The mill system will include cement storage, Ventomatic packing plant, MAAG gear, Airtech filters and auxiliary equipment. The project is expected to be commissioned in 3Q17.
