SCHADE equipment in South American cement plants
SCHADE Lagertechnik GmbH – a member of the AUMUND Group – is currently processing orders for the South American cement market, where AUMUND do Brasil assisted in securing the orders. Brazil. With the support of the AUMUND subsidiary AUMUND do Brasil, based in São Paulo since 1975, SCHADE received the order for the supply of one bridge type scraper reclaimer with single-side harrow to replace an existing machine of bucket wheel type in the CIPLAN cement plant Cimento Planalto.
The bridge type scraper reclaimer with its 26m rail span (600tph reclaiming capacity) will be adapted to fit exactly into the existing equipment layout featuring two piles located parallel to each other. An existing transfer table will move the machine between the piles.

placement.
