Cement plants
Cement plants are among the most demanding industrial facilities for piping systems. Cement production is accompanied by high temperatures, an intensely dusty environment, and the presence of abrasive media – conditions that place high demands on the durability and reliability of expansion joints.
KDMM fabric expansion joints are the ideal solution for piping systems in cement plants, thanks to their ability to withstand abrasive wear, high flue gas temperatures, and simultaneously capture multi-dimensional movements within a small construction space.
Typical applications in cement plants:
- Expansion joints in the flue gas ducts of rotary kilns
- Flexible connections at mills and crushers – vibration and shock damping
- Expansion joints in hot air and flue gas systems at clinker coolers
- Fabric expansion joints in filtration and dedusting systems (fabric filters, cyclones)
- Flexible connections in vibrating equipment and conveying systems
Thanks to the low reaction forces and high flexibility of fabric expansion joints, the mechanical stress on surrounding structures is significantly reduced and the service life of the entire piping system is extended.
