New, powerful vertical roller mills with pioneering drive technology are among the biggest of their type in the world.

Gazipur – LOESCHE recently received an order from the cement manufacturer Seven Circle Bangladesh Ltd. (SCBL), part of the holding company Shun Shing Group (SSGIL) / Hong Kong, for a vertical roller mill for its new grinding plant in Gazipur, near the capital Dhaka.

With four main and four support rollers, the mill will be used for grinding clinker/slag and will have a throughput capacity of 400 t/h. This makes it the largest LOESCHE cement mill in the emerging Bangladeshi market.
