What are the basic maintenance requirements for a rotary kiln?

Basic maintenance requirements for a rotary kiln include regular inspections of the kiln shell, refractory lining, and tire and roller bearings to identify wear or damage. Lubrication of moving parts, such as bearings and gears, is essential to ensure smooth operation. Additionally, monitoring and adjusting the kiln's alignment and temperature profiles help maintain efficiency and prevent costly breakdowns. Routine cleaning of the kiln's interior and external components also supports optimal performance and longevity.
