Our Hydraulic Roller Press offers flexible feed material grinding
Equipped with high-quality wear protection, our Hydraulic Roller Press can withstand the most abrasive feed materials. Its solid-forged, single piece rollers with oil lubricated spherical bearings ensure premium grinding capability, top-of-class availability and utmost reliability.
Reliable feed material grinding with our Hydraulic Roller Press
Due to its flexibility, reliability and energy efficiency, our Hydraulic Roller Press System, also known as the HRP system, is widely used in the cement industry. Hydraulic Roller Press comminution subjects the feed material to a very high pressure between its counter rotating rollers over a short time. The pressure exerted forms micro cracks in the feed particles, leading to the generation of a large amount of fine material. The Hydraulic Roller Press has the capability to grind raw material, cement clinker or slag and is suitable even for dry feed materials and there is no need to add water to the roller press while processing.
Improve production while reducing energy consumption
The flexible Hydraulic Roller Press is suitable for both upgrades and new installations. Upgrading from a conventional grinding system can, in some cases, more than double your production capacity, while also reducing specific energy consumption by 30 percent. In ball mills, for example, less power is required to produce finished cement from Hydraulic Roller Press-pressed material than from un-pressed material.
Adaptable to three different grinding setups
Our Hydraulic Roller Press offers maximal flexibility as it can be incorporated into three different grinding installation setups: pre-grinding, semi-finish grinding and finish grinding.
In a pre-grinding setup, the Hydraulic Roller Press grinds the fresh feed and a specified amount of recirculated pressed flakes. This material mix then undergoes finish grinding in a conventional ball mill circuit. In comparison to a conventional ball mill system, this configuration provides an increase in production of approximately 25 per cent and a reduction in specific power consumption of approximately 10 per cent.
Where semi-finish grinding is desired, the Hydraulic Roller Press can be combined with a two-stage separator system and a conventional ball mill. A dynamic separator, which maintains the desired quality of the final product is paired with a static separator that ensures effective deagglomeration and aids in drying the feed material.
Upgrading a conventional ball mill with the Hydraulic Roller Press for semi-finish setups can increase production by up to 100 per cent or more, while also reducing specific power consumption by approximately 30 per cent.
If the Hydraulic Roller Press is used for finish grinding in a closed circuit with the two-stage separator system, the need for other grinding equipment is eliminated. The reliable Hydraulic Roller Press outperforms ball mills and vertical mills when it comes to finish grinding.
While the Hydraulic Roller Press can be used to upgrade ball mill systems for energy efficiency and enhanced production benefits, it is also exemplary in upgrading your vertical roller mill. The resulting benefits include increased production, without any increase in specific energy consumption, and increased availability of the overall grinding system.

Flexible grinding solution with our hydraulic roller press
All eyes on the rollers
The Hydraulic Roller Press has solid-forged, counter-rotating rollers with no hollow shaft resulting in long equipment lifetime. The rollers have an optimum diameter to width (D/W) ratio that:
Helps maintain the robustness of the rollers
Increases acceptability of high feed size
Allows for better distribution of feed materials over the entire width of the rollers
Reduces the roller rotational speed for a given peripheral speed
Our unique roller wear surface TRIBOMAX® is the strongest and most durable surface available, and is applied to the Hydraulic Roller Press rollers using a special state-of-the-art welding technology. TRIBOMAX® has a 25,000-hour minimum guaranteed lifetime for Clinker grinding applications and can be designed to guarantee up to 40,000 hours of lifetime in select cases. We also provide conventional wear surface for applications in which your feed materials don’t have high abrasiveness.
The roller design and long-life wear surfaces ensure high availability and reliability of the Hydraulic Roller Press resulting in reduced operation and maintenance costs.
Bespoke separator system handles all feed material
The two-stage separator system uses different separators for raw material grinding and clinker grinding applications. Put simply, the system is made up of a dynamic separator and a static separator. The dynamic separator exhibits low velocity through its rotor cage while the compact static separator establishes optimum velocity in the coarse separation zone. Our separator system is well known globally for its top-of-class efficiency.
Smart bearing configuration for smooth operation
Spherical roller bearings help to accommodate angular misalignments during operation. A sophisticated oil lubrication system provides bearing lubrication, cooling and filtering of lubrication media. Further, bearings mounted on the withdrawal sleeve allow easy and safe removal for maintenance.
Flexible, smooth and safe operation
The highly-sensitive metal detector recognises any metal-based foreign materials in the feed material, allowing identification and removal to ensure enhanced protection of the Hydraulic Roller Press. The metal detector also gives more flexibility when adjusting the ‘zero gap’ between the rollers.
