It travels through the kiln where it is further heated to 2,700 degrees Fahrenheit. The heating process only takes about 20 minutes, but crucial chemical reactions take place converting the raw materials into a new substance called clinker. The red-hot clinker is cooled and stored in preparation for grinding. Ground to Perfection Cement clinker along with a small amount of gypsum is ground into a fine powder in a Finish Mill. Finish mills are large rotating cylinders containing steel balls for grinding.
Cement is so fine that it can easily pass through a sieve that's fine enough to hold water.
The cement is then ready to be stored or shipped to our customers. HP 1000 STPH Shale Crusher Capacity 300 HP 550 STPH Supplier Combustion Eng. F.L.
