Duocast®
These solutions aim at resisting risk of breakage in certain applications.
Name: Duocast®.
Industry:
- Cement.
- Power Stations.
Equipment: Vertical Roller Mills – one-piece rollers + tables in some applications.
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.
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.
