At Salford Rail depot improvements have been made during repair work to the B plant dryer tilt table. The improvements will reduce the frequency of future repairs and therefore reducing the risk involved in repair works.

The tilt table controls materials in the dryer, being discharged into the mixer box. The continual contact with hard stone and limestone wears the table which, over a period of time, becomes damaged and warped. The worn table was fitted with a new Tungsten Carbide Linear plate; this will reduce wear for a significantly longer period of time than previously.

This is a great example in how CEMEX is investing in a safer future.
