Successful acceptance of new production line at Pobeda LSR (RU)
After the successful performance test in March 2014 the final acceptance was signed by Pobeda LSR and Tecton Keramikanlagen in May 2014.
Instalat supplied a tunnel kiln with the whole kiln car fleet for the yearly production of 43,5 Million paving bricks in close cooperation with partner company Tecton Keramikanlagen GmbH.
The kiln is also developed for the production of large quantities of split tiles, facade plates and all kinds of special shaped bricks.
The tunnel kiln, equipped with a very sophisticated firing technology and the latest Instalat WinCC controls, allows Pobeda LSR to adjust the firing curve at any time to the requested product specifications.
The main reference product can therefore be produced with a water absorption of less than 2%. The frost resistance of these bricks even exceeds the high GOST requirements of 75 frost-thaw cycles for paving bricks in Russia.
The project was, as a part of the total project by Tecton Keramikanlagen GmbH, successfully executed as a full turnkey project under the responsibility of the Instalat Engineers
