Low Alloy Cast Iron Anvils

Low Alloy Cast Iron Anvils for Heavy-Duty Shredding Applications

Overview of Low Alloy Cast Iron Anvils

Low alloy cast iron anvils are robust, stationary components in industrial shredders and crushers, designed to withstand repeated high-impact forces from hammers during material processing. These anvils provide a stable, wear-resistant surface for breaking down tough materials such as scrap metal, aggregates, and minerals. WALKSON’s low alloy cast iron anvils are engineered for exceptional toughness and abrasion resistance, making them ideal for applications in metal recycling, mining, and quarrying. Specifically designed as replacements for leading brands like LINDEMANN, as well as compatible with Metso, Eidal, and others, our anvils ensure reliable performance and extended service life in demanding environments.

Material Benefits of Low Alloy Cast Iron Anvils

Crafted from low alloy cast iron with strategic additions of alloying elements such as chromium, molybdenum, and nickel, WALKSON’s anvils offer a superior combination of high compressive strength and abrasion resistance. Key properties and benefits include:

· High Compressive Strength: Withstands intense hammer impacts without deformation, ensuring structural integrity.

· Abrasion Resistance: Chromium and molybdenum enhance surface hardness, reducing wear from abrasive materials.

· Toughness: The alloyed composition provides resilience against cracking under high-impact conditions.

· Cost Efficiency: Long-lasting performance minimizes replacement frequency, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.

· Corrosion Resistance: Alloying elements improve durability in harsh, corrosive environments.

These properties make WALKSON’s low alloy cast iron anvils a dependable choice for heavy-duty shredding applications, including LINDEMANN anvil replacements.

o Penetrant Testing (PT): Identifies surface cracks, per ASTM E165.

o Magnetic Particle Testing (MT): Ensures surface and near-surface integrity, per ASTM E1444.

2. Dimensional Inspection:

o Gauging inspection using CMM and precision tools ensures compliance with ISO 2768 tolerances.

o 3D scanning verifies complex geometries for perfect fitment, critical for LINDEMANN replacements.

3. Material Testing:

o Hardness testing per ASTM E10 (Brinell) confirms surface hardness and compressive strength.

o Chemical composition analysis via spectrometry ensures adherence to ASTM A536 specifications.

4. Pre-Production Quality Planning:

o PPAP (Production Part Approval Process): Validates production processes before full-scale manufacturing.

o FAT (Factory Acceptance Testing): Verifies anvil performance under simulated operating conditions.

o PFMEA (Process Failure Mode and Effects Analysis): Identifies and mitigates potential risks.

o APQP (Advanced Product Quality Planning): Ensures consistent quality throughout production.
