Installation and debugging of steel wire rope electric hoist

The rail frame used for the mobile hoist of the power supply is selected and automatically designed by the user according to the GB706-88 standard. When installing the trolley, use adjusting washers to adjust to ensure a 3~5mm gap between the wheel flange and the track edge.

The installation of the fixed electric hoist should ensure that the safety method is correct, and the support frame is safe and reliable.

For electric hoist electrical installation, please refer to the “wire rope electric hoist related circuit diagram” to install the electrical appliances.

The adjustment of the fire stopper is realized by adjusting the two striker blocks on the limit rod. The adjustment method is to loosen the screws on the striker block, and the striker blocks are placed on both sides of the rope guide card board. The card board can Push the bumper to move freely. Start the motor and start to lift, the clamp plate pushes the upper limit striker to move, and when the upper edge of the hook pulley shell is 150mm~50mm below the drum shell, stop rising, move the lower button, and when the rope guide moves back about 10mm Stop moving the upper limit striker close to the card board and tighten the bolts.

Can Service Life of Your Overhead Crane Reach 25 Years?

Single girder cranes are more affordable as compared to a double girder crane. This is because a single girder crane has just one cross girder and the design of the trolley is simple as compared to the other. Also the freight for a single girder crane is lesser thus the low price. Whatever we buy, we all want to prolong the lifetime of our overhead crane. And can your single girder crane’s service life reach 25 years?

If the service life of your eot crane can not reach 25 years, nucleon crane engineer recommends you to buy the inverter overhead crane. However, the only disadvantage of inverter overhead cranes is the relatively high price. There is a saying that we all have heard: cheap things are only “cheap” one advantage, expensive things only “expensive” this one shortcoming. As a new-type crane, inverter cranes are advanced in many aspects than ordinary cranes. Let’s take a look at the four major advantages of inverter overhead cranes:

  1. maintenance-free: because of good quality, fewer failures, more than three or five years do not need maintenance.
  2. Long service life: The inverter used by the frequency conversion crane can protect the electric hoist and the electrical system, and can effectively extend the service life for 25 years.
  3. Smooth operation and low noise: It solves the problem of large noise and unstable operation of traditional eot cranes.
  4. Safety: The safety protection device of the frequency conversion crane is complete, eliminating potential safety hazards.

If you have a relatively high demand for eot cranes, then choose a variable-frequency crane. The overhead cranes usually take a long time. A good quality eot crane can save you a lot of trouble during use. The extra price is definitely worth it. Nucleon crane produces kinds of high quality overhead cranes with the most competitive prices. Welcome to visit our factory.

 

Which Factor is Directly Related To The Service Life Of Eot Cranes?

As we all know that bridge cranes are widely used in metalworking workshops, assembly workshops, metal mechanism workshops, maintenance workshops, various types of warehouses and other occasions. They can also be used for metallurgy and foundry workshops to assist in lifting. After considering the requirements of wind and rain protection and improving the design, it can be used in open space. However, do you know which factor is related to the service life of double girder crane?

The degree of crown on the main girder of the bridge crane is strictly required. It can be seen how heavy the crown of the girder is for the bridge crane. Also, the degree of crown of the upper girder crane is an important technical parameter of the bridge crane. The service life of the overhead crane. Therefore, the inspection of the main girder is very important.

In the bridge structural steel, the degree of gravity of the main girder of the main girder also has certain influence. According to the manufacturing process of the bridge crane girder, the main girder, end girder, walking platform, trolley track and living end beam link plate components are synthesized into a bridge. Through many years of production practice, it has been found that when the double girder eot crane is carrying out the bridge structure, the self-weight of the main beam will inevitably cause the lower deflection, and due to the difference in the position of the bracket, the lower deflection value caused by the self-weight of the main beam is different, and thus the measured main The value of the crown on the beam is also different.

Only when the bracket is placed under the center line of the span of both ends of the bridge, the measured value of the crown on the main beam is accurate and does not need to be corrected. When the bracket is located in the bridge structure in the broken beam and actually carries out the bridge structure, according to the welding process requirements for the main beam and the end beam assembly, two brackets are often placed on the main beam in order to facilitate the insertion of the main beam into the end beam.

 

 

Maintenance rules for overhead cranes

overhead cranes are the same as automobiles. After a period of use, even if there is no obvious failure, the overhead crane still needs to be maintained. This is to ensure that the crane can be used normally in the future.

 

Its maintenance mainly includes daily inspection, monthly inspection and annual inspection. According to the actual use situation, most units are inspected and maintained once every 3 to 4 months. Generally, daily inspections are completed by operators, mainly to check whether the control system of the bridge crane is faulty, whether there are hidden dangers in the metal structure, protection devices, and whether each working mechanism and operating mechanism are normal.

 

Relatively speaking, monthly inspections should be comparatively inspected, such as whether the electrical control system has any electrical components loose, whether the lubrication points of the bridge crane need to be lubricated, whether the protection devices are sensitive and effective, etc., and find potential hazards in a timely manner and perform maintenance.

 

The annual inspection focuses on the performance of the crane on the basis of daily and monthly inspections, inspects the electrical components and cables of the crane for aging, and replaces vulnerable parts such as wire ropes and brake pads. Whether the metal structure is deformed, whether the track is worn or not, etc. need to be carefully investigated.

 

The hook is also a relatively large fetching device used in bridge cranes. It bears all the loads of the lifting. During the use, once the hook is damaged and broken, it may cause a major accident. The cause of the damage and fracture of the hook is that the hook is cracked, deformed, and damaged due to friction and overload.

 

In order to prevent the hook from malfunctioning, overload lifting is strictly prohibited during use. During the inspection, attention should be paid to the opening degree of the hook and the wear of the dangerous section. At the same time, the hook should be annealed regularly.

 

Reasons for welding deformation of overhead crane

The overhead crane is a lifting device transverse to the workshop, warehouse and shell. Because its end is located on a high concrete column or metal bracket, it is shaped like a bridge. Bridge cranes are widely used in engineering and production, but there will be many problems in the process of use.

Controlling the deformation of welding is to fully understand the cause of the deformation, and it is helpful to take appropriate measures according to the specific situation, thereby reducing the degree of welding deformation to a small value, making the structure appropriate and reasonable, better improving the various properties of the crane, and providing more Good structure.

Under normal conditions, the main cause of welding deformation of bridge cranes is caused by uneven heat input. The amount of heat input is closely related to the material and structure of the welding. Material factors and structural factors affect the movement of the metal around the heat source, making it simultaneously affected by the internal and external binding forces, resulting in the production of welding materials. Stress-deformation welding deformation mainly includes shrinkage deformation (longitudinal shrinkage and lateral shrinkage), bending deformation, angular deformation, wave deformation, twisting deformation and other types. It is reflected in the external structure of the bridge crane that shows local uplift, distortion, bending and distortion.

Welding deformation mainly includes shrinkage deformation (longitudinal shrinkage, lateral shrinkage), bending, angular deformation, wave deformation, twisting deformation, etc., reflecting the external structure of the bridge crane, showing local bulging, twisting, bending and distortion.

In the welding process, these problems are caused due to many reasons, for example, the size of the weld is insufficient, the number of welds does not meet the predetermined standard, the location of the weld, and the designed location, welding material. The thermal physical properties are not strong, the construction process is not conducive to achieving a good welding state, the selection of welding parameters, etc., each specific link must be carefully mastered to effectively achieve the desired effect.

 

How to deal with the rust of explosion-proof electric hoist?

The corrosion treatment of the explosion-proof electric hoist cover easily deforms the shell and is difficult to store. The appearance will be affected, and there is a risk of scratching at any time during use. Rusty internal parts will increase the friction between the parts. Excessive parts consumption will increase costs. In addition, it consumes the motor and shortens the service life of the motor. The rust of explosion-proof electric hoist is still very harmful, so how to deal with rust?

Explosion-proof electric hoist derusting methods can be divided into manual derusting, mechanical derusting and chemical derusting. Manual rust removal refers to manual rust removal with a wire brush, scraper, emery cloth or abrasive paste; for copper and its alloys, tung oil can be used to remove patina. There are two types of mechanical derusting tools: wire brush and sandblasting derusting machine. Chemical rust removal is to make it react with iron rust by pickling, so that the rust component becomes iron chloride or iron sulfate, so as to achieve the purpose of rust removal. In order to prevent the explosion-proof electric hoist from rusting and causing unnecessary trouble and loss, the explosion-proof electric hoist must be maintained to prevent it from rusting.

The brake failure of the explosion-proof electric hoist will cause serious consequences. Braking failure is one of the common failures of explosion-proof electric hoist. Brake failure is very important. But the novelty is that if we can detect and take measures in time, then we can avoid dangerous situations. It can be said that if the brake is not detected in time, the hook will exceed the limit position. In severe cases, the motor will heat up and the motor will burn.The main reasons for brake failure or large braking distance are: brake clearance is too large; there is oil in the brake; the brake ring is severely worn; the brake spring is broken; the fastening screw of the motor shaft or gear shaft end is loosened; the overload is released. These faults only need to be adjusted or replaced. In addition, the temperature rise of the motor exceeds the limit on the nameplate, which is also a common fault of the brake.

The main reason is: the movement clearance of the brake wheel is too small; overload. Explosion-proof electric hoists are more dangerous than ordinary electric hoists. A simple brake failure may just be unreliable brakes and damaged accessories. However, if the explosion-proof measures fail, an explosion hazard may occur

Reasons for slipping hook of electric wire rope hoist

Because of its compact structure, superior performance, small headroom size, accurate positioning, comfortable operation, safe and reliable, wire rope electric hoist is widely used in construction machinery, aerospace, wind power, nuclear energy, automobile manufacturing, metal processing, papermaking and other fields . reliability. There are five main reasons for the sliding hook phenomenon of Wire Rope Hoists.

One of the reasons is the failure of the electric hoist motor. When the Remote Control keeps pressing the lift button, the cone brake is in the open state. If the motor fails or the power is insufficient, it may cause the load of the hook to drop.

The second reason is the failure of the cone brake of the wire rope electric hoist. If the electric hoist is in the normal lifting state, the electric hoist may not be able to slide down when the electric hoist is closed or the brake is in the normal lifting state, which may also cause the electric hoist to malfunction during driving.

The third reason: the wire rope hoist reducer has failed, and the electric hoist is all installed on the side of the reducer gear transmission to reduce the speed and increase the torque. The output speed and torque of the motor match the input speed and torque of the drum. The electric hoist reducer includes an input shaft, an intermediate shaft, an output shaft and gears that mesh with each other on each shaft. Any twisting and breaking of the drive shaft, broken gear teeth and poor meshing stability will affect the torque transmission and cause the hook to slip.
The fourth reason: there is a problem with the torque transmission of the finger reducer of the wire rope hoist motor. The electric motor and reducer of the wire rope hoist are respectively located on both sides of the hoist, and the torque transmission between them is completed by the coupling in the drive shaft and the drum. The drive shaft and coupling transfer torque through splines. Drive shaft fracture, spline wear, coupling damage, etc. will affect the transmission torque and cause the hook to load and slip.

The fifth reason: In each link of the torque transmission of the wire rope hoist, the damage of each bearing will also affect the torque transmission. The damage of the bearing will cause the parts of the transmission mechanism to bear the eccentric load torque. The gearbox bearing bears the unbalanced load torque, and it is easy to shake and twist at the beginning; the gear mesh is unstable, and even breaks the tooth; the spline wears. All of these affect torque transmission and cause the load-bearing hook to slip.

 

How to Choose A Best-matched Overhead Crane?

With the development of crane, all kinds of overhead cranes would be used in more and more industries, such as Single Girder Overhead Crane, double girder overhead crane with electric hoist, heavy duty double girder overhead crane, But, do you know to choose the best-matched cranes? Here, let me introduce some instructions.

Safety precautions for electrical equipment of bridge cranes

The driving motor of the bridge crane completes the front and back, left and right, up and down movement of the hook through deceleration and transmission organization. In order to ensure the safety of the operation, the necessary electrical maintenance system should be set up, such as the main blocking switch, emergency power off switch, short circuit maintenance, Overload maintenance, limit maintenance, etc.

It is necessary to regularly check the movement and heating of the motor and whether the electromagnet is operating normally. Whether the controller and contactor are flexible and easy to use. It is necessary to: First, prevent out of control due to operating errors or electrical faults such as controllers and maintenance panels, resulting in heavy objects falling or hitting accidents; second, preventing electric shock caused by touching and exposing the power supply slide line or insulation damage or poor grounding Incident; third, in flammable and explosive places, it is necessary to use explosion-proof electric cranes.

Electric hoist gantry crane load test

After the hoist gantry crane  no-load test conditions are normal, the load test is allowed. The load test is divided into static and dynamic two types. The static load test is carried out first, and then the dynamic load test is carried out.

Inspection content of the hoist gantry crane load test.

(1) The quality of bolt connection and welding at each connection of the crane metal structure is mainly the quality of the main end beam connection.

(2) The strength and rigidity of mechanical equipment, metal structures and spreaders, and the strength of crane rails.
