Duocast® Xwin®

These solutions aim at resisting risk of breakage in certain applications combined with high wear resistance.

Name: Duocast® Xwin®.

Industry:

• Cement.
• Power Stations.

Equipment: Vertical Roller Mills – rollers only.

Tech specs:

• Technology consisting of very hard and special cast iron inserts embedded in a ductile iron base.
• The ductile iron core has a hardness of about 300 BHN and an elongation of about 7%.
• HiCr iron inserts are held in the ductile iron by dovetails to form a mechanical bond when the base metal is cast.
• Performance is improved by adding a layer of Metal Matrix Composite (MMC) in the HiCr inserts.

Key Benefits:

• Combines the hard wear resistance of the special inserts with the ability of the ductile iron to operate under very high mechanical stresses.
• Increased lifetime vs. Duocast® solution.
