DESIGN and CONSTRUCTION FEATURES
Mill shell
The shell is made of carbon steel plates,
with two steel flanges welded to
the ends. The entire shell is machined
in a single setting in order to ensure
parallelism and concentricity. Seams
are double butt welded.
required high-pressure and lowpressure pumps, motors, suction
strainers, filters and the necessary tray
to make a complete packaged unit. The
low-pressure pumps serve for forced
lubrication while the high-pressure
pumps are used for pre-jacking.
Forced lubrication and pre-jacking units
An independent lubricating pump
assembly is provided for each trunnion
bearing. Each assembly consists of
