Gear Box Internals
Parallel shaft gear reducer (two way power branch)
Low speed gear stage
All gears surface-hardened and ground
All shafts with roller bearings
Key point:: Face load distribution of the LS-gear stage
Bearings with excentric sleevesto optimise the face load distribution

HGRS Tikaria_Mill Workshop SEPT-07
Potential Technical Problems Drive
Girth gear drives - Fundamental Problems
Dynamic behaviour
A lot of individual rotating masses risk of resonance vicinities
Torsional/structural vibrations
Pinion shaft bending vibrations
1. Axial/radial runout
2. Alignment of the drive trains
3. Uneven power splitting
4. Centre distances variable
5. Face load distribution
6. Sealing of the girth gear
7. Girth gear is through hardenedonly, fatigue strength is limited

Potential Damages Drives
Breakage damage (pinions)
Cause: Inadequate transverse load distribution, brittle material
Secondary damage:Tooth breakage
Initial damage:Pitting on the pitch line
Fatigue breakage
12
HGRS Tikaria_Mill Workshop SEPT-07
Potential Problems Drive
Single pinion drive (2’300 kW)
Breakage failure of the pinion in the gear reducer
Heavy (active) pitting on the drive pinion
Possible Cause: - Inadequate load distribution (1)- Overload of the tooth flanks (2) 1

Mill Bearing
Advantages slide shoe bearings:
No size and capacity limitation of the mill
Simple design of wear plates
Far higher limit of gas temperature at mill inlet (e.g. for drying with heat generator)

Feed Arrangements for Ball Mills
Preferred design today

Fine Grinding and Mill Cooling
SOLUTION
Adapted mill cooling, playing with: Clinker temperature Mill ventilation Water injection
Use of grinding aid (temporary solution because expensive)
PROBLEM
Insufficient mill cooling lead to material agglomeration on balls and liners
The grinding is not any more done by balls against material but by material against material
