The occasion was the fir-. ing of the 425-foot long kiln at Calaveras Cement Com-. pany’s streamlined plant 12 miles north of Redding. _The Flintkote Company, of which Calaveras is an operating division, has inves~ted $15,000,000 in the ultramodern plant now in final stages of construction. The plant will have an annual production capacity of 1,5000, 000 barrels of cement a year. Most of its equipment, including the kiln, is electronically controlled, Flintkote vice-president Wm, Wallace Mein, Jr., who also is president of Calaveras, joined Grant W, Metzger, Calaveras vicepresident in charge of production; and JamesC, Curry, manager of the plant, at an informal kiln firing ceremony today at ll a.m, Unlike most cement plants in the west, the. Calaveras installation will utilizea “day” manufacturing process in which no water is mixed with raw materials as they are burned and ground to make cement, The 1200 -ton revolving -kiln -18 feet 6 inches in diameter at iti feed end and 12 feet in diameter at the point of discharge -will make one complete turn every 5lseconds, During its warm-up period, however, it will"creep"at a much slower rate, Mein estimates that approximately two days will . be required for temperatures to be brought up to 2700 de-~ grees Fahrenheit, This is heat enough to melt steel, a temperature necessary to bring about the chemical changes in limestone and shale which are essential to the process of making cement, Calaveras w i11 stockpile clinker produced by the kiln, with initial shipments of finished cement scheduled for some time after the first of the year, WORKING PRESIDENT.. «President-elect Tom Yost of the Nevada City Chamber of Commerce smiles as he plans for new and greater promotions for 1962.
