MVR vertical roller mill for grinding cement raw material Amrize Saint Constant
Amrize opts for MVR technology – reliable even at -30 °C
Another Canadian customer has been won over by Gebr. Pfeiffer’s innovative MVR technology. The order is for an MVR 3750 R-4 roller mill for grinding cement raw material.
The customer, formerly Holcim North America and renamed Amrize in 2025, is a leading supplier of building materials in North America (cement, aggregates, concrete, asphalt as well as building solutions such as roofing systems) and is clearly focused on growth.
We are delighted to be supporting Amrize in its growth projects with the latest mill technology. The MVR 3750 R-4 is being installed at the Saint-Constant cement plant near Montreal. Reliable outdoor operation is guaranteed even at outside temperatures as low as −30 °C.
The raw mill is equipped with an SLS 3450 VR classifier of the latest design and grinds 280 t/h of cement raw material to a fineness of 12 % residue on 0.090 mm. At the same time, the cement raw material is dried from a feed moisture content of approx. 2.55 % to a residual moisture of less than 0.5 %.
2,415 kW are installed on the mill drive.
The Chinese company CBMI was engaged as the general contractor.
The commissioning of the MVR mill is planned for the second half of 2027.
