Our constant evolution of technologies applied to ceramic engineering leads us to design new types of refractory linings. Each of these designs is applied based on a variety of factors that are evaluated at the customer’s site in conjunction with the technical information provided by the customer.
This 3D animation shows the construction of a VPX kiln car, which uses a mixed pressing and extrusion technology. Based on our experience, we have created a solution with pressed slabs and an extruded lower contour designed specifically for direct loading without a draught hole blocks/viaducts. With an average density of around 1,020 kg/m³, it moves away from old, heavy wagons, improving energy efficiency).
For a wagon height of 320 mm in stationary operation at a firing temperature of 900 °C we have the following wagon characteristics:
Maximum load: 2,000 kg/m².
Maximum temperature: 1,200 °C
Heat lost: 682 W/m²
Accumulated heat: 202 MJ/m².
With more than 400 references all over the world and an important mold and nozzle department, we are able to meet any dimensional requirement of the kiln cars.
