FEECO recommends an annual rotary drum inspection to help maintain efficiency, prolong equipment life, and prevent unnecessary downtime. Our Customer Service Engineers can visit your site directly, and thoroughly examine the following drum components:

    • Drum shell
    • Drum drive
    • Drum tires and wheels
    • Trunnion bases
    • Thrust rollers
    • Riding ring/girth gear
    • Inlet breeching/feed chute
    • Discharge breeching/discharge chute
    • Drum internals (flights, etc.)
    • Burner/combustion chamber
    • Support structure/piers
    • Drum seals
    • Knocking systems

After the inspection, our Customer Service Engineer will generate a detailed report, noting the items above that need monitoring, repair, or replacement- all of which FEECO is able to assist with.

Inspections are crucial to the operational efficiency and longevity of the equipment, and should be part of your regular maintenance program.
