How to extend the service life of cranes

- Jun 02, 2014 -

Cranes are widely used  in the current industry. People are paying more and more attention to their performance and service life.However, some people neglected their maintenance work because of the urgent construction period, which led to reduced life expectancy, equipment problems and failures. So maintenance is one thing that must be done frequently. So how can we extend the use? Yuntian takes you to understand how to extend the service life of cranes?

When the crane is used in peacetime, it is necessary to inspect and maintain frequently. This will not only prolong the service life of the crane, but also make it more powerful when working. It is also necessary to check that the transmission part has enough lubricating oil, and that the wearing parts must be inspected, repaired or replaced frequently. For mechanical bolts, especially those parts that often vibrate, the hydraulic oil should be drained, and the joints must be tightened to remove the oil filter. After cleaning, clean it with compressed air, put it back in the tank, and connect the tubing (with new oil, don't inherit the old oil, otherwise the moving parts in the crane will accelerate wear). The parts are filled with some lubricating oil to extend the service life of the elevator bearings.


Finally, we must always check all the wires and cables of the crane for damage. Timely Wrapping and replacing the damaged parts. In case of motor overheating, it is necessary to stop in time, and then continue to operate after eliminating the fault. The lubrication of motor bearings should be good. Hydraulic lifts must be regularly maintained to ensure smooth operation of their equipment. Only careful protection of the equipment is required to ensure its safe use and thus increase the service life.
