The quality of crane girders serves as the foundation for ensuring the quality of track installation. Generally, the installation datum line of the track is the datum line of the crane girder. Before track installation, a careful inspection of the crane girder must be carried out. Simultaneously, the datum line of the crane girder can […]
Introduction In recent years, the mining industry has been undergoing a significant transformation, largely driven by the need for sustainability and cost efficiency. One of the most groundbreaking developments in this sector is the adoption of electric dump trucks. As industries around the world strive to reduce carbon emissions and transition toward greener alternatives, the […]
The hydraulic system provides power for the operational devices of an engineering crane. Proper maintenance of the hydraulic system is crucial for enhancing the crane‘s operational reliability. Typically, hydraulic systems must undergo flushing before they are officially put into use. The purpose of this flushing process is to remove contaminants, metal debris, fibrous compounds, iron […]
Load limiters and load moment limiters are collectively referred to as overload protection devices. Overloading is one of the primary causes of crane accidents. In mild cases, overloading can damage crane components, causing motor overload and structural deformation. In severe cases, it can result in broken beams, tower collapse, arm fractures, or even complete machine […]
Introduction With the rapid development of construction technology and the increasing demands for safety, efficiency, and energy conservation, tower cranes play an essential role in modern construction projects. Among the key components of tower cranes, the hoisting mechanism is crucial for lifting and lowering loads safely and efficiently. Traditional hoisting mechanisms typically rely on mechanical […]
Factor 1: Unsafe Conditions of the Crane Itself One of the primary reasons for the falling of loads from crane hooks is the inherent unsafe conditions of the crane itself. These conditions can stem from various sources, including design flaws, manufacturing defects, improper installation, and inadequate maintenance. 1. Design Deficiencies Poorly designed cranes can present […]
Introduction Conveyors are essential equipment in various industrial sectors, including mining, logistics, and manufacturing. Their proper installation directly affects operational efficiency, safety, and durability. This document outlines the installation methods of conveyors, key considerations, and necessary precautions to ensure smooth operations. 1. Preparation Before Installation Before beginning the installation of a conveyor system, thorough preparation […]
The structure of the short-stroke block brake is shown in Figure 1-17. When the electric motor is powered on, the electromagnet coil connected in parallel with the motor winding is also energized. This generates an attractive force in the stationary core (9), which pulls the moving core (8). Consequently, the push rod (7) is pushed […]
1. Classification by Length Ball mills can be classified based on the ratio of their length to diameter. This classification affects their grinding efficiency, usage, and application in various industries. (1) Short Ball Mill A ball mill is considered short if its length-to-diameter ratio is less than 2. It is commonly referred to simply as […]
As a type of lifting and transportation machinery, large tower cranes are prone to rust and corrosion due to various unresolved issues. The steel structures of large tower cranes are particularly susceptible to rusting when exposed to air for extended periods without adequate protective measures. This corrosion occurs when the steel structure reacts chemically with […]
