Rotary Kiln Maintenance: The Most Common Issues and …

Misalignment of the Kiln. One of the most common problems with rotary kilns is misalignment. When the kiln isn't properly aligned, it can cause a number of issues, including decreased production and damage to the kiln itself. If you notice that your rotary kiln isn't running as smoothly as it should be, or if it seems to be vibrating more ...

The rule of thumb basically works like this; express the kiln diameter in meters e.g. 4 meters. Divide that number by 10 and attach a % sign. e.g. 0.4% That would be the mid range of the allowable relative ovality range with a tolerance of about 0.02% In terms of actual dimensions, i.e. the absolute ovality in this example says 0.4/100 x 4000 =

When a tube is bent it can lose the round shape near and around the bend. This deviation is called ovality, and is defined as the difference between the maximum and minimum dimension of a tubes' outer diameter. For example, after bending, a 2" OD tube could measure 1.975". This difference of 0.025" is the ovality factor, which must ...
