How to prevent crane rail gnawing phenomenon

HOWO 16 Ton Knuckle Boom Crane
In today’s industrial landscape, ကရိန်းs have emerged as an indispensable hoisting equipment in numerous fields. Their role is crucial in various applications, ranging from construction sites to manufacturing plants and warehouses. သို့သော်, with their widespread use, ensuring the safety of ကရိန်းs becomes of paramount importance. One of the significant concerns that can pose a serious threat to ကရိန်း operations is the phenomenon of rail gnawing.

Once a ကရိန်း experiences rail gnawing, the consequences can be extremely harmful. Rail gnawing can lead to a series of problems that can ultimately result in serious ကရိန်း accidents. These accidents not only endanger the lives and safety of operators and workers in the vicinity but also can cause extensive damage to property and disrupt operations, leading to significant economic losses.

The reasons for rail gnawing are complex and multifaceted. Construction technical parameters errors such as the coincidence degree, inclination, and gauge of the ကရိန်း‘s large vehicle tracks can all contribute to the occurrence of rail gnawing. ဥပမာအားဖြင့်, if the tracks are not properly aligned or if there is an incorrect inclination, the wheels of the ကရိန်း may not run smoothly along the tracks, resulting in excessive friction and eventually leading to rail gnawing. ဒီလိုပါပဲ။, if the gauge of the tracks is not maintained within the specified range, it can also cause the wheels to deviate from their intended path and cause damage to the tracks.
သို့သော်, traditional inspection methods for detecting and preventing rail gnawing have significant limitations. These methods often rely on visual inspections or simple measurements, which may not be able to detect subtle changes in the tracks or the ကရိန်း‘s operation that can lead to rail gnawing. ထိုမှတပါး, once rail gnawing has occurred, it can be difficult to take preventive measures using traditional methods as the damage may have already progressed to a significant extent.

  1. Anti-rail gnawing technology:
In response to the challenges posed by rail gnawing, anti-rail gnawing technology has been widely adopted. This technology for gantry ကရိန်းs offers a potential solution to mitigate the problem. သို့သော်, it should be noted that this technology can only be adjusted by electrical methods and cannot completely eliminate rail gnawing. Instead, it can only adjust the ကရိန်း‘s operation within a small range repeatedly. This means that the effectiveness of this technology may not be immediate but becomes more apparent over time as the adjustments are made continuously.
ဥပမာအားဖြင့်, the electrical adjustment system can monitor the position and movement of the ကရိန်း wheels in real time. If it detects any deviation from the normal path, it can send signals to adjust the speed or direction of the wheels to minimize the friction and prevent further damage to the tracks. Although this may not completely eliminate rail gnawing, it can significantly reduce the occurrence and severity of the problem.

The use of anti-rail gnawing technology can bring several benefits. ပထမဦးစွာ, it can effectively reduce the consumption costs of large vehicle wheels, couplings, reducers, motors, and other equipment. By minimizing the friction and wear caused by rail gnawing, these components can have a longer lifespan, reducing the need for frequent replacements and repairs. ညိုညို, it can alleviate the contradiction of transporting billets in the finished product span. In some industrial processes, the smooth operation of ကရိန်းs is crucial for the efficient transportation of materials. Rail gnawing can disrupt this process, but anti-rail gnawing technology can help ensure that the ကရိန်း can perform its tasks without interruption. Thirdly, it can reduce a lot of manual repair costs. Manual repairs of rail gnawing can be labor-intensive and time-consuming, but with the use of this technology, the need for such repairs can be minimized. နောက်ဆုံး, it effectively reduces the labor intensity of employees. By reducing the occurrence of rail gnawing and the need for manual repairs, employees can focus on other important tasks, improving overall work efficiency.

Not only that, but anti-rail gnawing technology also plays a crucial role in preventing the deformation of the vehicle body, protecting the vehicle body, tracks, and roof beams, and ensuring the safe operation of the ကရိန်း. By maintaining the proper alignment and movement of the ကရိန်း wheels, this technology can prevent excessive stress and damage to the ကရိန်း‘s structure, ensuring its stability and reliability.

  1. Increasing design stiffness:
Another approach to preventing rail gnawing is by appropriately increasing the stiffness of the ကရိန်း‘s design, especially the horizontal stiffness. A stiffer design can help resist the forces that can cause rail gnawing and ensure that the crane operates smoothly along the tracks.
ဥပမာအားဖြင့်, the main girder of the ကရိန်း usually adopts a box girder design. This design offers excellent horizontal stiffness and torsional stiffness, which can help distribute the load evenly and prevent excessive deflection or deformation. The box girder’s closed structure provides a high level of strength and stability, reducing the likelihood of rail gnawing.
The horizontal walkways on both ends of the ကရိန်း can also play an auxiliary role in increasing the horizontal stiffness of the bridge frame. These walkways not only provide access for maintenance and inspection but also add to the overall rigidity of the structure. By strengthening the connection between the main girder and the end girder, they help resist the lateral forces that can cause rail gnawing.

Strengthening the diaphragms of the offset box girder and making it a transverse structure design is another effective measure. The diaphragms help distribute the load and prevent local buckling or deformation. By making the box girder a transverse structure, the stiffness in the horizontal direction is enhanced, reducing the risk of rail gnawing.
Rigidly connecting the main girder and the end girder in the horizontal plane to form a rigid frame design is also beneficial. This connection provides additional stability and resistance to lateral forces, ensuring that the ကရိန်း remains in proper alignment with the tracks.

  1. Ensuring proper free deflection:
Since the ratio of the restraint span to the base distance of the ကရိန်း is inversely proportional to the allowable free deflection of the crane, understanding and controlling this relationship is crucial for preventing rail gnawing. By ensuring that the crane has a certain free torsional swing, it can adapt to minor variations in the tracks and reduce the stress on the wheels and tracks.
When the ကရိန်း exceeds the allowable free deflection, the metal structure of the ကရိန်း can redistribute the working resistance at both ends of the working mechanism. This redistribution helps to make the speeds at both ends tend to be the same and achieve synchronization. By maintaining a balanced operation, အဆိုပါ ကရိန်း can run more smoothly along the tracks and reduce the likelihood of rail gnawing.

ဥပမာအားဖြင့်, if one end of the ကရိန်း experiences more resistance due to an uneven track or some other factor, the metal structure can transfer some of the load to the other end, ensuring that both ends move at a similar speed. This self-adjusting mechanism can help prevent excessive stress on one side and reduce the risk of rail gnawing.
နိဂုံးချုပ်အားဖြင့်, preventing ကရိန်း rail gnawing is a complex task that requires a combination of measures. Anti-rail gnawing technology can provide electrical adjustments to minimize the problem, while increasing the design stiffness and ensuring proper free deflection can enhance the structural stability and operation of the ကရိန်း. By implementing these measures, ကရိန်း operators and manufacturers can reduce the occurrence of rail gnawing, ensure the safety of operations, and prolong the lifespan of cranes and their components.
