Key Maintenance Parts of Wire Rope Hoist For Philippines

Electric Wire Rope Hoist is a common lifting equipment in Philippines. It has the characteristics of compact structure, light weight, small volume and convenient operation. It is mainly installed on various types of cranes for supporting use.

With the development of the construction industry in Philippines, the application of electric wire rope hoist is becoming more and more extensive. Among them, there are many places with harsh environment. In order to ensure the efficiency and life of electric hoists, some parts need to be checked and maintained regularly.

WIRE ROPE

The wire rope is the main load -bearing part of the whole hoist, and the frequency of use is very high. Therefore, during daily maintenance, the operator needs to check the strength of the wire rope frequently. Add lubricating oil to the wire rope regularly, which can reduce the friction between the wire rope and the object. In addition, if the wire rope meets the condition of scrap, it needs to be replaced in time.

DRUM

As an important part of the hoist, the rolling cylinder is often squeezed, bended and pointed by the steel wire rope during the working process. In the daily maintenance process, if the cracks of the drums are found, the scrap treatment should be performed to eliminate hidden safety hazards. Secondly, the degree of rope grooves should not exceed 2 mm. If it exceeds, a new rope slot must be replaced. Moreover, the thickness of the roll wall should not be less than 80% of the original wall thickness. And there should be no cracks on the upper and lower drums.

REDUCER

The reducer needs to add and replace the lubricant regularly. Otherwise, it will not only produce noise, but also damage gears and bearings. If the gear and bearings are damaged, they need to be disassembled or replaced immediately. This can eliminate failures and reduce noise.

BRAKE

The brake is an important part of ensuring work safety. It can prevent the sudden fall of heavy objects and achieve parking function. If there is a problem with the brake, a safety accident may occur.

SAFETY MONITORING OF METALLURGICAL CRANE IN STEEL MILLS

Metallurgical crane refer to relying on the longitudinal movement along the track direction of the workshop, the lateral movement of the trolley and the lifting movement of the hook to carry out work. It is suitable for metal smelting workshops and is a special crane for lifting molten metal. In view of the special environment of the metallurgical crane in steel mills, the following targeted solutions have been made.

  • High temperature resistance of on-site equipment in metallurgical workshops

The temperature in the workshop of the steel factory is relatively high, and the hot air from the steelmaking furnace will continue to float to the highest metallurgical crane. In summer, the measured temperature of the railing of the metallurgical crane can reach more than 60 degrees. The priority of cable selection is whether the equipment can meet the high temperature conditions.

  • Dust control in metallurgical workshop

There are a lot of iron oxide characteristics in the steelmaking workshop. The circuit boards of the monitoring equipment must be protected against dust, and each incoming hole must be strictly sealed to prevent short circuits on the circuit boards.

  • Measurement accuracy and sensitivity of overload limiter

The proportion of molten steel for each batch of ladle mixed steel in the metallurgical workshop is fixed. The weight error of 180 tons must be within the range of two tons. A coaxial encoder is installed on the barrel side to correct the weight, which minimizes the influence of the weight of the wire rope itself on the overall weight.

  • The height measuring encoder is installed coaxially with the reel

The passage of the steel ladle is very narrow during the hoisting process. Sometimes it is necessary to drop the steel ladle to the ground tens of centimeters and then let the steel wire rope pass through the ground equipment from the upper hole. At this time, the operator needs a particularly accurate height to avoid walking while hanging the steel ladle. The steel ladle hangs on the ground during the cart, causing a safety accident.

  • Infrared imaging and automatic fire extinguishing system for electrical cabinets

The infrared imaging and automatic fire extinguishing system of the electrical cabinet solves the major safety hazard that cannot be detected in time when the electrical cabinet of the crane catches fire under high temperature conditions.

Yuantai Crane have a professional technical team, which can design and produce standard and non-standard crane hoist and spare parts. If there are other special requirements, it can be customized according to user needs and negotiated by both parties.

WHAT IS THE COMPOSITION OF THE LIFTING TONGS?

Lifting tongs are mainly composition of parts: hanging beam, connecting plate, opening and closing mechanism, synchronizer, clamp arm, support plate and clamp teeth.

Hanging beam for lifting tongs

The hanging beam is a part connect with the Crane Hook. and has three structures: ring shackle connection. sling connection and lug connection. The hanging ring and shackle-type connection of the hanging shaft improves the stress of the spreader. and at the same time avoids the decoupling phenomenon when loading and unloading steel billets. reduces the height of the fixture itself. and it is beneficial to use in low places.

Connecting rod for lifting tongs

The connecting rod is the connection between the suspension beam and the tong arm.

Opening and closing mechanism for lifting tongs

The opening and closing mechanism has manual lifting rod type, double hook type(automatic), single hook type(automatic), turn lock type(automatic) and other forms. The automatic opening and closing mechanism is a mechanism to realize the automatic opening and closing of the billet fixture. and Its action does not require any external power source. and the automatic opening and closing of the fixture is realize by the gravity of the fixture itself. Lubrication of the opening and closing mechanism: Lubricating oil (or engine oil) must be add regularly (2 to 3 days), and then moved up and down several times until the lubrication is complete. It is strictly forbidden to add excessive grease for lubrication.

Synchronizer for lifting tongs

The synchronizer is a device that ensures the synchronous action of each clamp arm of the fixture.

Arm for lifting tongs

The clamp arm is the main force-increasing part of the fixture. through which the billet is clamp.

Support plate for lifting tongs

The support plate is the support for the billet fixture. and The support plate is support on the upper surface of the billet to ensure the smooth operation of the opening and closing mechanism of the billet fixture.

Clamp teeth for lifting tongs

Clamp teeth have pin shaft connection type. dovetail connection type and groove plug-in type and other structures. The jaws are the main parts that are in direct contact with the billet. and determine the reliability of the billet clamps to hold the billet.
