Your Advantages with the Langzauner Refractory System
Complete Solution
Press and setting system from a single source – without interface issues.
Langzauner supplies the press and setting system as an integrated complete system from a single source – including automation, handling, and control technology.
Unlike modular systems involving multiple suppliers, this creates a fully integrated system without interface losses.
In practical terms, this means:
- perfectly coordinated motion sequences between press and setting system
- synchronized process steps for short cycle times
- centralized control of all components via a uniform architecture
- minimized risk during integration and commissioning
For the operator, this results in higher process stability, reduced coordination effort, and maximum system performance.
High Pressing Force
Up to 25,000 kN pressing force for maximum compaction.
The hydraulic press systems achieve pressing forces of up to 25,000 kN or more and are specifically designed to meet the requirements of the refractory industry.
This high pressing force enables:
- optimum compaction, even for complex geometries
- consistent density distribution across the entire component
- reduced porosity and increased product service life
The combination of pressing force, precise control, and robust machine design creates a stable, reproducible pressing process for industrial series production.
Maximum Energy Efficiency
Up to 50% lower energy consumption compared to standard market systems – thanks to an innovative hydraulic concept.
The hydraulic system is consistently designed for energy-optimized operation in continuous industrial production.
Through demand-based power control and efficient system design, the energy used is precisely matched to the pressing process.
This enables:
- reduction of energy losses during partial-load operation
- avoidance of unnecessary pressure and volume-flow peaks
- optimized utilization of installed power
Compared to conventional press systems, energy savings of up to 50% can be achieved.
Up to 50% less energy means:
- lower operating costs
- faster ROI
- more sustainable production
Higher Productivity
Up to 30% shorter cycle times enable significantly higher output per system.
The complete integration of press and setting system enables optimally coordinated motion sequences and minimal downtime.
By synchronizing all process steps:
- non-productive times are reduced
- material flows are optimized
- cycle times are shortened
The result is significantly increased output while maintaining stable process quality.
Depending on the application, productivity increases of up to 30% can be achieved.
30% shorter cycle times mean:
- more output per shift
- improved OEE
- faster amortization
Automated Production
Fully automated from raw material to stacked green brick.
Langzauner implements fully automated press lines for the refractory industry, with all process steps seamlessly connected.
From raw material to stacked green brick, production takes place without manual interfaces.
This includes:
- continuous material supply and precise dosing
- precise mold filling
- synchronized pressing cycle
- automated removal and transfer
- setting system with stacking function
Benefits:
- consistent process quality
- reduced sources of error
- higher system availability
- minimized personnel requirements
