Grid Material Upgrade – Improved Wear Life for Non-Ferrous Shredding
Grid material upgraded after review of worn surfaces and the shredding materials.
Background: Manganese standard grids suffer rapid wear when processing abrasive non‑ferrous raw materials, resulting in shorter change-out intervals. Solution: Worn surfaces were inspected, and an alternative material grade was proposed. Hardness and toughness targets were defined prior to production. Scope: Grid / grates material upgrade. Outcome: The upgraded grids were delivered with hardness and metallographic reports, and service life was improved.
