Wear-resistant solutions for recycling
OUR WEAR PROTECTION EXPERTISE
A WIDE RANGE OF WEAR-RESISTANT MATERIALS
BMI selects and combines different solutions according to the wear mechanisms encountered: Raex® abrasion-resistant steels, ABRA-FACE / ABRA-GLIDE overlay plates, ABRA-STEEL NX stainless steel and hardfacing materials.
Hardness, toughness and corrosion resistance are adapted to the areas actually exposed to wear.
AN INTEGRATED INDUSTRIAL FACILITY
Cutting, boilermaking, machining, hardfacing and parts manufacturing: BMI carries out the main production steps in-house.
An industrial facility designed to ensure short lead times, responsiveness and the manufacture of custom wear parts for recycling plants.
EXPERTISE IN HARDFACING MATERIALS
BMI develops and masters its own hardfacing solutions: cored wires for abrasion or impact, FlexCarb cords and wear protection processes.
Hardfacing makes it possible to regenerate hammers, knives, rotors and screens rather than replace them, and to extend the intervals between maintenance shutdowns.
EXPERTISE FROM THE FIELD TO ENGINEERING
Field sales engineers, materials and machine specialists are involved from wear analysis through to parts manufacturing. On-site measurements, reverse engineering, materials advice.
The goal: reduce line stoppages and the maintenance cost per tonne processed.
To address the different wear mechanisms: abrasion, impact, corrosion or clogging, BMI implements different technical solutions:
– Raex® abrasion-resistant steels, from 400 to 500 HBW
– ABRA-FACE, overlay plates for areas exposed to severe abrasion
– ABRA-GLIDE, smooth-surface overlay plates against clogging
– ABRA-STEEL NX, for environments combining abrasion and corrosion
– Hardfacing cored wires: a range adapted to each type of wear (abrasion, impact, erosion, corrosion…)
– FlexCarb flexible cords based on tungsten carbides, for areas exposed to very severe abrasion
WEAR PARTS
FOR RECYCLING
BMI manufactures, regenerates and improves the reliability of wear parts for equipment used in recycling plants.
Shredder liners, hammers, knives and counter-knives, anvils, rotors, sizing grates, screens, screw flights, hoppers and chutes can be manufactured to drawing, reverse-engineered on site or improved according to the constraints encountered on site.
