The problem of chain plate breakage in bridge type reclaiming machine is quite common. There are many reasons behind it, including wear at the chain joint, poor quality of the chain plate, and poor fit between the sprocket and the chain plate. To avoid chain plate breakage, we must take preventive measures to improve the safety and stability of scraper reclaiming machine operation. The following are the possible causes and solutions for chain plate breakage in portal scraper reclaimer. Let's take a look!
1. Chain plate breakage caused by wear at the chain joint
One of the main reasons for the chain plate breakage of bridge type reclaiming machine is the wear at the chain joint. If the joint is worn, the chain will be unstable and the chain plate will break easily. Therefore, check the wear degree of the chain joint of portal scraper reclaimer regularly and replace the joint in time if necessary.
2. Chain plate breakage caused by poor chain plate quality
In the production process, sometimes in order to save costs, some bad manufacturers will use inferior steel or poor process to manufacture chain plates, so that scraper reclaiming machine cannot withstand the pressure during work and is easily broken or deformed. For this case, it is recommended to replace the chain plate with better quality to ensure the normal operation and production efficiency of the equipment.
3. Chain plate breakage caused by poor fit between sprocket and chain plate
Poor fit between sprocket and chain plate is also one of the reasons for the chain plate breakage of bridge type reclaiming machine. If the size of the sprocket does not match the size of the chain plate, or there is a problem with the bearing used by the sprocket, it will cause the chain plate of portal scraper reclaimer to break. Therefore, when purchasing a sprocket, be sure to ensure that its size and quality meet the requirements of the equipment.
Although it is common for portal scraper reclaimer chain plate to break, such failures can be effectively prevented by regular inspections, the use of high-quality parts, and ensuring the good fit of the sprocket and the chain plate. The maintenance and care of scraper reclaiming machine is crucial to ensuring production efficiency. Enterprises should pay enough attention and take timely countermeasures to reduce scraper reclaiming machine downtime and ensure continuous production.
