oh dear! Explanation: There is nothing on google for Eckspiralpanzerung, Spiralpanzerung, Eckspiral, Eckenspiral etc. etc. I've done a lot of cement texts, so here is my best guess: Panzerung is cladding (usually weld cladding) or hardfacing i.e. a surface layer of hard steel which is resistant to abrasion. Spiral: I suspect this is the spiral screw of a screw conveyor - and they are cladded/faced. These conveyors are often used to transport the material to and from the mill. So we've got cladded spiral or cladded screw so far. But the Eck bit. Eck is a corner or an angle. Well, there are no corners on a spiral screw - it would defeat the purpose, the material would just catch in the corners, so perhaps it is located at a corner. I think you will have to ask for more information from the client. Maybe my deliberations are of some help and the corner bit may ring a bell when you read your text. Good luck, you are going to need it! |
