Shaft end flange seals, internal cleaning scraper blades and heavy motor gearboxes for drives

Dry powder colouring complexes Easy Color and Boost

Patented Easy Color System and Easy Color Boost technologies perform dry pigmentation of spray-dried powder for technical porcelain tiles. The process cuts electrical consumption by up to 50% and protects delicate granule morphology from shear stress and degradation.

Gravimetric micro-dosing screw feeders with strain-gauge load cells for color pigment control
Continuous diffusion mixing chambers delivering uniform oxide dispersion across bulk powders
Pneumatic shut-off diverter valves, venturi powder ejectors and compact pulse-jet filter units
Process control consoles equipped with recipe calibration modules and digital flow regulation

Freestile preparation systems and Divario press feeders

Freestile preparation plants and Divario shuttle feeders perform multi-layer powder deposition and uniform press cavity filling for large ceramic slabs and stoneware tiles. The mechanism guarantees uniform compaction density, minimizing shrinkage defects across tile batches.

Smooth anti-static polyurethane conveyor belts engineered for heavy continuous powder duty
Shuttle loading carriages equipped with high-precision rack-and-pinion servomotor drive units
Electropneumatic directional control valves, optical position sensors and travel end stops
Conveyor belt scraper blades, hold-down tracking rollers and calibrated distribution plates

Pneumatic conveying lines, DLA distributors and VS valves

Automatic linear distributors DLA and rotary airlocks VS manage material routing across pneumatic convey lines feeding multi-silo bulk storage installations. The DLA range spans diameters from DN50 to DN125 with between two and twelve outlets, delivering seamless pipe connections.

Motorized shuttles for DLA distributors with pneumatic clamping rings for leak-free sealing
Rotary airlock valves VS fitted with hardened rotor tips, available in ATEX compliant design
Dense-phase pneumatic transporters PP designed for conveying dry abrasive powders with low wear
Manual distributors DLM, line pressure transducers, diverter flaps and solenoid spool valves

Compacting systems Fyster and fluid bed dryers EVF

Fyster briquetting units and EVF fluid bed dryers handle powder compaction into stable granules or briquettes alongside continuous drying of mineral feedstocks. The equipment minimizes airborne dust losses while preparing minerals for subsequent thermal firing or storage.

Dual rotating compacting rings with pocketed moulding cavities crafted from hardened alloy
Perforated gas distribution grids for EVF dryers fabricated from heat-proof AISI 316 steel
Finned thermal heating batteries, high-temperature bag filters and dust separation cyclones
High-pressure centrifugal draft fans, flexible expansion joints and Pt100 thermal sensors

Industrial machinery and turnkey processing lines by LB Officine Meccaniche

For over fifty years, the engineering firm LB Officine Meccaniche has engineered and manufactured industrial plants and automated processing lines for ceramic tile, porcelain stoneware and bulk construction material plants worldwide.

The equipment portfolio encompasses raw material preparation systems, fine dry grinding mills, continuous horizontal granulators, patented dry powder colouring units, press feeding shuttles, and dense-phase pneumatic conveying installations.

LB machinery delivers low power consumption, preserved powder particle morphology and repeatable moulding tolerances across tile manufacturing facilities globally.

Fine dry milling and micronization systems Microton and MP

For continuous dry pulverisation of abrasive minerals including quartz, feldspar, silica and zirconium silicates, LB provides Microton milling plants and MP press-powder micronizers. The machines achieve fine particle distributions below ten microns during continuous automated operation.

Grinding chambers incorporate replaceable wear liners made from high-alloy steel and dynamic air classifiers with frequency-regulated cut points.

Timely installation of matching grinding media, roll assemblies and bearing housings guarantees dependable output and keeps mineral powders free from foreign contamination.

Continuous horizontal granulators series HGT and GRC

Continuous horizontal granulators HGT and GRC blend and aggregate fine ceramic powders, mineral fertilisers and dry construction mortar blends.

The unit incorporates a rotating cylindrical vessel fabricated from polished AISI 304 stainless steel, mounted on a structural frame with adjustable incline, alongside an internal high-speed intensifier shaft.

The automated control system synchronises liquid binder feeding through spray nozzle manifolds with vessel rotation speed to maintain precise granule diameters. Replacement scraper blades, spray nozzles, shaft seal assemblies and gearboxes sustain non-stop production.

Patented dry powder colouring complexes Easy Color and Freestile

Patented dry colouring technologies Easy Color System and Easy Color Boost, united under the Freestile concept, transformed the manufacturing of technical porcelain stoneware.

Injecting micro-dosed pigment oxides directly into spray-dried powder flows cuts electrical energy consumption by up to fifty percent without degrading delicate spherical granules.

The installation integrates loss-in-weight gravimetric feeders, diffusion blending chambers and digital metering regulators. Replacement feed screws, pneumatic diverter valves, pulse-jet filter bags and calibration electronics preserve color consistency.

Shuttle press feeding systems Divario and Single Feeder

Hydraulic press feeding installations Divario and Single Feeder ensure uniform powder distribution within large-format moulding cavities for porcelain slabs and architectural tiles.

Employing servomotor shuttle carriages and antistatic polyurethane conveyor belts eliminates interior air pockets and compaction variations across pressed pieces. Uniform cavity filling prevents structural cracks and optical shade deviations during subsequent high-temperature kiln firing.

Spare parts include durable scraper blades, tracking guide rollers, optical positioning sensors, drive belts and electropneumatic control valves.

Matching replacement parts, wear liners and seals by LB nameplate data

To preserve plant throughput and original specifications of LB Officine Meccaniche production lines, replacement components are selected using factory nameplate and machine serial documentation.

The replacement scope includes mill liners, grinding rollers, rotary screen meshes, Fyster briquetting rings, VS rotary airlocks, DLA linear distributors and PP powder pump seals.

Direct selection according to manufacturer engineering standards prevents dimensional deviations and mismatched metallurgy. Routine replacement of wearable components and flexible couplings guarantees reliable continuous plant operation.
