From a single furnace to a global wear-parts partner
Company records trace casting operations in Luoyang to 1992, beginning with small ball-mill liners under the Songshan Steelmaking Plant name. The documented operation later expanded its casting, heat-treatment, machining and export capabilities for quarry, mining, cement and recycling applications.
Under the ZHILI® WEARPARTS brand, the published range includes crusher hammers, HSI blow bars, jaw plates, cone mantles and concaves, grinding-mill liners, roller-press wear parts, heat-resistant castings and grinding balls. Candidate ceramic-composite routes are reviewed against the actual part geometry, operating duty and agreed acceptance criteria.
Company records document an SSAB Hardox® authorization dated 2017, Duroxite® hardfacing capability and five invention patents. Today these records are used as historical evidence, while material, source, inspection documents and warranty terms are confirmed for the actual application and order.

Official Hardox® Wearparts directory
Hardox® wear-plate and hardfacing capabilities
The official Hardox Wearparts directory currently lists Luoyang Zhili New Material Co., Ltd. as a certified center in Luoyang. Appointment document APC-17-29 shown below is dated 2017; this verification does not extend to the Kunming production base.

Appointment document APC-17-29 · dated 2017

FACTORY TOURS & INSPECTION
We don't just ship samples. We show you the foundry.
This is how a Spanish cement plant buyer verified his first order. He flew to Luoyang, walked our sand-casting floor, inspected the material test certificates, and watched his own crusher hammer heads come out of the water-toughening quench before they ever touched a pallet.
Before production, buyers can agree the required visibility for alloy melting, heat treatment, hardness testing and packing records.

Reference names are reproduced from company-supplied historical material and should be independently confirmed for any current vendor assessment.
Company records document exports across four global regions; shipment scope is confirmed per order.
Trusted in operating plants across Europe.
Real data from real quarries and cement plants. Not laboratory estimates.

Customer wear record for a limestone crusher
A customer performance table records 70 insert-bar hammers from new to used condition and the limestone tonnage processed during the test period. The operating site and feed specification are not publicly disclosed. The figures are customer-reported, not an independent laboratory result.
482,285 t
Customer comparison record: wear rate and cost per tonne
A Romanian-crusher worksheet compares recorded hammer campaigns. The disclosed ZL-supplied hardfaced row shows a lower recorded cost per tonne but a higher wear rate than the European benchmark rows. Campaign conditions may differ. The record does not establish a controlled same-condition laboratory comparison.
1,112,000 t
Four-month field feedback progressed to purchase discussion
A maintenance supervisor at a Turkish cement producer wrote that the four-month performance was liked and that purchasing would make contact regarding two hammer types. No tonnage, wear rate or completed purchase record is stated in the supplied evidence, so none is claimed here.
