Portland cement, to meet
the exacting specifications
OF leading engineering soci-
eties and the United States
Government, must be
ground SO fine that at least
78per cent will pass a sieve
having 200 wires per linear
inch. A silk handkerchief
has but uO threads perinch
an excellent quality OF
silk dress goods 1877 threads.
The watch in your pocket hardly
calls for more complicated and
carefullyadjusted process OF manu-
facture than the making ofcement.
Grinding is only one Of the many
operations required to make il.
Yet in grinding alone, see what is
required:
The rocks from the quarry, often
as big as a piano and heavier, go
first into gigantic coffee mill.
1t bites at these huge chunks,
chips them, and finally orushes
them-to pieces six inches or SO
in diameter.
Two finer mills follow, one after
the other, reducing the stones 10
the size of coarse sand. Alter this,
they must be ground in great re-
volving cylinder half filed with
steel balls, until every cubic loot
Of the rock has been reducedto IA
billion pieces-until IS per cent
of them will shake through sieve
that willactually holdwater, ,asieve
with 10000 holes to the square
inch.
And all of this is less than halfthe
necessary grinding. The coal must
be ground. For the object OF all
this fine grinding of the raw ma
terials is only that it may be fused
into crystalline clinkers. And to
fuse it requires pulverized coal
or its equivalent. Most plants use
pulverized coal.
The coal must be ground as hne
as the raw stone. Eighty-five per
cent of it or thereabouts must go
through the sieve that holds
water. And that often means two
grinding operations.
There is still the clinker TO be
ground. 1t is glass-hard to begin
with. 1t must be ground hrst the
fineness of sand, and then ground
and reground in another cylinder
of steel balls until at least 78 per
cent of it will go through the
sieve woven finer than silk.
Huge powders to an impalpabi,e
dust. Common coal to an impal-
pable dust, and finally, after the
burning, glass-hard clinker to an
impalpable dust. That is the max
ing Of cement. And eight heavy
grinding operations are required
in the process.
Grinding is only one OF the lesser
heat and power consuming oper-
ations in cement manufacture.
