Introduction to
Tyre Ring
A Tyre ring (also known as a riding ring or rotary kiln Tyre) is a crucial component in large rotating equipment such as rotary kilns, dryers, and mills. It provides structural support and helps distribute the load evenly across the shell. The Tyre ring also allows for thermal expansion of the shell, preventing excessive mechanical stress.
Key Features of Tyre Ring
- Made from high-strength steel or cast iron.
- Helps maintain structural integrity and alignment of the rotary equipment.
- Reduces wear and tear on the shell.
- Allows smooth rotation and movement.
Applications of Tyre Ring
- Cement Industry: Drives rotary kilns and ball mills.
- Mining Industry: Used in SAG mills, ball mills, and crushers.
- Power Plants: Drives coal mills and other large rotating machinery.
- Steel Industry: Used in large industrial furnaces and rolling mills.
