I. Introduction to Crane Over-Speed Protection Crane over-speed protection is a crucial safety protection device installed in the hoisting mechanism of cranes. It plays a vital role in ensuring the safe operation of cranes and safeguarding the well-being of various personnel involved in crane operations, as well as protecting the crane equipment itself from potential […]
I. Introduction When a gantry crane is in operation, especially during rotation, brake failure can pose significant risks and disrupt the normal working process. In this regard, a detailed analysis of the causes and corresponding solutions of brake failure during the rotation of the gantry crane is of great importance. II. Observation of the Problem […]
I. Lifting and Hoisting When multiple cranes are used to lift a single component simultaneously, the load borne by each individual crane should meet the requirements of the special construction plan.In the context of large-scale construction projects or complex industrial operations where heavy components need to be lifted, it is often necessary to employ multiple […]
I. Initial Setup and Opening of the Grab At the commencement of the working process, the supporting wire ropes are used to hoist the grab to an appropriate position. These supporting wire ropes play a crucial role in ensuring that the grab is properly positioned above the area where the material handling operation is to […]
I. Failure Phenomena of Couplings Severe Wear on Gear Teeth Surfaces: One of the common failure phenomena of couplings is the severe wear on the gear teeth surfaces. This wear can significantly affect the meshing and transmission performance of the coupling. When the gear teeth surfaces are worn, the smooth engagement between the gears is […]
I. Pre-Operation Inspection and Load Limitation Thorough Inspection of Components: Before using a manual chain hoist, the operator must conduct a detailed inspection of each and every component and part, including each link of the chain. Only when everything is in good condition can it be put into use. This initial inspection is of crucial […]
I. Introduction Crane cables play a vital role in the operation of cranes, ensuring the transmission of power and signals for various functions. However, different arrangements and operating conditions of the cables require specific attention to ensure their safe and efficient use. This article will discuss in detail the precautions for using crane cables when […]
I. Personal Protection Measures Proper Use of Safety Harnesses by Workers at Heights: Workers engaged in suspended work at heights should firmly fasten their safety harnesses. The selection and wearing of safety harnesses should comply with the relevant provisions of the current national standard “Safety Harnesses” (GB6095). When working at heights, the safety of workers […]
I. Introduction Crane wheel rail gauging is a common problem that can significantly affect the normal operation and service life of cranes. When wheels deviate from their proper running tracks and start to “gnaw” on the rails, it not only causes abnormal wear on the wheels and rails but also poses potential safety hazards. Therefore, […]
Tower cranes with telescopic tower structures and horizontal jib configurations, such as the QT16-type quick-assembly lower slewing tower crane, often follow a sequential procedure for installation. Below is a detailed step-by-step guide: 1. Stabilizing the Base Frame Extend all four support legs and lower the support jacks to lift the tires off the ground. Adjust […]
