Steel Sector in India

 

India is the 2nd largest steel producer country in the world after China.

India produces more than 111.2 Million Metric Tons of Steel every year. The export and import of finished steel stood at 8.24 MT and 6.69 MT, respectively, in FY20.

The per capita consumption of steel has increased from 57.6 kgs to 74.1 kgs during the last five years. This industry is said to increase its production capacity to 300 million tonnes by 2030–31.

Both, the Government and Private sectors of this industry are majorly investing to increase production capacity and improve technologies for sustainable growth.

Steel production in India can be increased if the health of machinery is maintained. Lubrication Reliability plays an important role to achieve and maintain the health machine. 


The different types of Hydraulic equipment used in Steel Plants face an untimely breakdown and hindrance in operation due to OIL contamination and clogged systems.

Lubrication Reliability is an important part of operation and maintenance in Steel Plants. To increase hydraulic equipment's health, Superfine Oil is mandatory.

Minimac's range of Oil Purification Systems ensures fine filtration of oil up to 0.1 microns. We take care of your equipment and eliminate the source of contamination after thorough Oil Analysis and Condition Monitoring.

Lubricants face many challenges in providing lubrication to mechanical equipment, depending on the environment they operate in.

Temperature fluctuation, heat, heavy load, entrained air, etc. are some of the challenges faced by lubricants. These challenges invite different types of contamination which reduce the life of the equipment and hinder the smooth flow of operation.

Dealing with these challenges is not easy and demands regular checks of Oil and equipment lubricants that need periodic purification to eliminate contaminants.

One of the most common and stubborn kinds of contaminants which are found in lubricants is Varnish. Check out our article link to know more about varnish and its effects.

Reusing lubricants is always better than disposing of lubricants!

The use of lubricants in steel-producing facilities is extensive. Changing trends in lubrication and reliability suggest that lubricants can be reused after purifying them from different types of contamination.

The reuse of lubricants would lower the disposal and help companies save the substantial cost and time of operation and maintenance. This would also help save the environment and support sustainable growth.

Let's Purify and Reuse!

We at Minimac study your maintenance needs and provide the best solution. We believe in Discern, Design & Deliver.

Control System Of Turbine - Failure & Maintenance

Image
Control System The turbine control system describes the control over the opening of control valves corresponding to demand signals, and steam flows into the turbine with the help of a governing system that facilitates the operation of the turbo set in an interconnected grid system. Governing system is responsible for various function such as speed & load control functions, the start-up/shut-down controls, the over-speed control, turbine stress calculation, to control the initial run-up and synchronization of the Unit, to assists in matching the power generated to that demanded by responding to system frequency changes, to regulate the steam control valves position (and hence the load generated)in response to signal from the operator or from the load dispatch Centre, to restrict the speed rise within acceptable limits should the unit get disconnected (islanding) from the lgridoad and some protective trip functions. With continuous research and developments in modern turbine technolo

Minimac Technology

Image
 The secret recipe of the growth story at Minimac Syste ms has been its capability to drive technological advancement in the field of contamination control for lubrication reliability. Research and development on technology and products have always been the key reason to keep the Minimac products a step ahead of its competitors in the market. Technological development has been one of the core competencies which Minimac possesses, thereby ensuring a definite competitive advantage. Contaminations in lubricants are of various types and characteristics depending on the lubricant, equipment application, ambient conditions, age of equipment, etc. In order to control, separate or eliminate the contamination, there are multiple techniques. Each technique has pros and cons and hence there is no single technology that can be considered universally better than others. ​ Minimac Systems over the years has become equipped with almost all the technologies which are required for contaminat

Storage Management of Oil Products and its Importance.

Image
Product storage is an important criterion for any segment of products. It plays a vital role in the longevity of the products, every product in any form has a certain life period and this life period forms the baseline of the product. Coming to the lubricating oil industry, product life period plays an important role in the smooth running of the machinery and the plant. As these oils play a very important role in the day to day functioning of critical machinery, so if not maintained properly these can lead to the breakdown of machinery thereby leading to a shutdown of the plant which leads to the incurrence of huge loss. Therefore it is very important that these oils should be used well in advance before their life period expires. We can hereby pen down certain prerequisite conditions for storage of lubricants: 1.  Pre usage Inspection : It is mandatory to verify their performance properties & conditions with oil analysis for the oils that have been kept for a long pe
