Heavy-duty grease for highly loaded rolling bearings operating at low speeds

Klüberlub BE 41-1501 is designed to meet the requirements of rolling bearings subjected to extreme conditions. The appropriate combination of base oil and additives enables improved wear protection. FAG FE 8 tests have confirmed the effectiveness of Klüberlub BE 41- 1501 under these conditions and it is approved by various bearing manufacturers, e.g. FAG, to be used for applications in low-speed rolling bearings subjected to very high loads and shocks, for example in roller presses and bowl mill crushers.

Application areas
Klüberlub BE 41-1501 was developed for highly loaded large rolling bearings running at low speeds as well as toothed gear systems such as industrial and rail traction gear couplings. Typical applications and requirements include spherical roller bearings in roller presses, bowl mill crushers and rotary crushers in the mining and base materials industries. The operating conditions of roller bearings require use of a heavy-duty grease with high base oil viscosity with suitability for the following conditions:
• Low speed, n = 10-30 rpm
• High load, P/C = 0.25 – 0.50
• Bearing temperature approx. 50-70 °C
• Shock loading and vibration
Owing to its excellent lubricating properties, Klüberlub BE 41-1501 can also be used successfully for the lubrication of pivoting bearings, plain bearings and industrial gear couplings.

KLÜBERLUB BE 41-1501 – RELIABLE SOLUTION FOR HEAVY INDUSTRY LUBRICATION
Klüberlub BE 41-1501 is the perfect solution in heavy industries like cement and steel manufacturing. During high levels of oscillation and friction, If the lubricating film becomes adversely stressed under extreme conditions, the solid lubricants MoS2 and graphite contained in Klüberlub BE 41-1501 ensure excellent emergency lubricating properties providing additional reliability in the event of starved lubrication. The product also provides good corrosion protection and is compatible with seals, e.g. made of NBR elastomers.

WHY HEAVY INDUSTRIES CHOOSE KLÜBERLUB BE 41-1501
• Considering bearing operating temperature of 700°C, Klűberlub BE 41-1501 shows excellent film thickness
• Klűberlub BE 41-1501 has a good weld load
• Excellent additive performance.
• Klűberlub BE 41-1501 has a wide operating range
• Lower NLGI ‘1’ ensures that under load conditions, quantity of oil bleed by the thickener is more, ensuring optimum lubricating film

LEADING CEMENT PLANT DISCOVERS LONG-TERM LUBRICATION SOLUTION IN KLÜBERLUB BE 41-1501 – A CASE STUDY
At one of India’s leading large-scale cement manufacturing plants, their KHD roller press (size RP 16) had been in in operation since April 2004.
The grease used for lubricating the roller press bearings was that which was supplied by the machine manufacturer along with the machine. However, in 2006 the roller press tripped owing to high bearing temperature of the moving roller non-drive end bearing. Upon investigation following the dismantling of the machine, it was observed that the grease flow was well below desired levels, with just minimal traces of grease at some places. The bearing failure was attributed to a lack of proper lubrication.
This is when the team of experts from Klüber Lubrication stepped in to come up with a quick and enduring solution to solve the issue. After rigorous tests and trials, the team arrived at the conclusion that the solution lay in using a premium grade lubricating grease. Klüberlub BE 41-1501 has a base oil viscosity of 1500 cSt which is 1.5 times higher than the existing product. It is a NLGI Grade 1 grease which means that it has a higher oil content than NLGI grade 2 greases. The higher viscosity in combination with the NLGI 1 grade, makes for a better and more stable lubricant film, ensuring better protection for the bearing.
The results were expectedly positive. Upon switching to Klüberlub BE 41-1501, for lubricating the roller press bearings, the outcome was evident. Not only did the temperatures of the bearings reduce significantly (about 50°C), so did the sound and vibration levels.
Buoyed by the outcome, our client currently uses Klüberlub BE 41-1501 for all their operating roller presses.

The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), Kolkata, has approved Burnpur Cement Limited’s scheme for the reduction of capital, as outlined in an exchange filing by the company. The petition was filed under Section 66 of the Companies Act, 2013, in accordance with the National Company Law Tribunal (Procedure for Reduction of Share Capital of Companies) Rules, 2016.

The approved scheme involves reducing the company’s issued, subscribed, and paid-up equity share capital from Rs 86.12 crore, divided into 8,61,24,363 equity shares of Rs 10 each, to Rs 17.22 crore, divided into 1,72,24,873 equity shares of Rs 10 each, fully paid-up. The move aims to optimise the capital structure of the company.

The NCLT order specifies that the capital reduction will not affect any ongoing actions by government or regulatory authorities related to violations of any laws in force. Burnpur Cement is expected to file the certified copy of the order with the Registrar of Companies (RoC) in e-form INC-28.

Cement manufacturers report margin decline in September quarter amid lower prices

The all-India average cement price saw a year-on-year decline of 11%

Cement manufacturers have reported a decline in margins during the September quarter, primarily due to lower prices, which led to reduced sales realization. Smaller companies such as Nuvoco Vistas Corp, JK Cement, Birla Corporation, and Heidelberg Cement experienced a drop in both topline and sales volume. However, leading players like UltraTech Cement, Ambuja Cement, and Dalmia Bharat performed better, primarily due to several recent acquisitions that have bolstered their market position.

The industry faced challenges, including an extended monsoon, floods, and slow government demand, all of which contributed to weak market conditions. Despite these challenges, power, fuel, and other operational costs remained stable.

In terms of pricing, the all-India average cement price saw a year-on-year decline of 11% from ₹348 per 50 kg bag in June 2024 to ₹330 per bag in September, although it rose by 2% month-on-month. In FY25, the average cement price saw a 10% year-on-year reduction, down from ₹365 per bag in FY24.

UltraTech Cement reported a 68% capacity utilization and a 3% growth in sales volume, despite an 8.4% year-on-year decline in sales realization for grey cement. Similarly, Ambuja Cements saw a 9% increase in sales volume, reaching 14.2 million tonnes, but its EBITDA was 15% lower year-on-year at ₹1,074 crore due to lower price realizations.

JK Lakshmi Cement reported a net loss of ?19.24 crore for the second quarter of FY25, reversing the previous year’s profits. The cement giant faced a challenging period, with rising input costs and subdued demand in certain markets impacting its financial performance. The company also noted a decline in sales volumes during the quarter, which further contributed to the loss.

Despite the tough quarter, the company remains optimistic about its long-term prospects, citing the ongoing demand for infrastructure development and the potential for recovery in key regions. The management is focusing on cost optimization strategies and exploring new markets to overcome the current challenges.

The net loss marks a significant deviation from the company’s usual profit trajectory, raising questions about the impact of macroeconomic factors and inflationary pressures on the cement sector as a whole. With raw material costs and transportation expenses climbing, the company is grappling with maintaining margins while trying to sustain its market position.

JK Lakshmi Cement’s management is working to boost operational efficiency and improve financial health in the coming quarters. Analysts are keenly observing whether the company will rebound in the second half of the fiscal year, as infrastructure projects and government spending are expected to provide support to the industry.
