Key Maintenance Points for Components of European Bridge Crane

1. Crane exterior inspection

Regarding the inspection of the exterior of the European style bridge crane, in addition to thoroughly cleaning the exterior to ensure no dust accumulation, it is also necessary to check for defects such as cracks and open welding. For the large and small vehicles in the crane, what needs to be done is to inspect and tighten the transmission shaft seat, gearbox, and coupling. And adjust the clearance of the brake wheels to make it even, sensitive, and reliable.

2. Gearbox detection

As a key component of European bridge cranes, the reducer must also be inspected. Mainly to observe if there is any oil leakage. If any abnormal noise is found during operation, the machine should be shut down and the box cover should be opened for inspection in a timely manner. In most cases, it should be caused by bearing damage, excessive gear backlash, severe tooth surface wear, and other reasons.

3. Inspection of steel wire ropes, hooks, and pulleys

Steel wire ropes, hooks, pulleys, etc. are all components in the lifting and hoisting mechanism. The inspection of steel wire ropes should focus on observing conditions such as broken wires, wear, kinks, and rust. At the same time, attention should also be paid to whether the safety limiter of the steel wire rope in the drum is effective. Whether the steel wire rope pressure plate on the drum is tightly pressed and whether the number of pressure plates is appropriate.

The inspection of the pulley focuses on whether the wear at the bottom of the groove exceeds the standard and whether there are cracks in the cast iron pulley. Especially for the balance wheel of the lifting mechanism pulley group, it is easy to overlook its non action under normal circumstances. Therefore, before installation, it is necessary to check its rotational flexibility to avoid increasing the degree of danger.

4. Electrical system inspection

Regarding the electrical part of the European bridge crane, in addition to checking whether each limit switch is sensitive and reliable, it is also necessary to check whether the motor, bell, and wires are safe and reliable, and whether the signal lights are in good condition.
