Crawler excavators are currently the most used in the excavator industry. Crawler is very important for crawler excavator. They are part of the excavator traveling gear. However, the working environment of most projects is relatively harsh, and the crawler of the excavator is often loose, damaged, broken, etc. So how can we reduce these failures?
●Improper operation control when turning
When the excavator is turning, the crawler on one side walks, and the crawler on the other side does not move, and there is a large rotational movement. If the track is blocked by the raised part of the ground, it will get stuck on the track on the rotating side, and the track will be easily stretched. This can be avoided if the operator is skilled and careful when operating the machine.
●Driving on uneven roads
When the excavator is doing earthwork, the operation site is generally uneven. Under such terrain conditions, the crawler excavator walks improperly, the weight of the body tends to be local, and the local pressure increases, which will cause certain damage to the crawler and cause loosening problems. This is mainly due to the construction environment, this can not be completely avoided, but we can observe the surroundings before working to check where the driving will be smoother.
●Walking for a long time
The excavator can not drive too long on the road like a car. The operator should pay special attention that the crawler excavator cannot walk for too long, which will not only cause great damage to the crawler, but also affect the service life of the machine, so the movement of the excavator must be controlled.
●The gravel in the crawler is not cleaned in time
When the crawler excavator is working or moving, some gravel or mud will into the crawler, which is unavoidable. If we don't remove it in time before walking, these crushed stones will be squeezed between the driving wheel, guide wheel and crawler as the crawler rotates. Over time, the crawler of the excavator will become loose and the chain rail will break.
●Excavator parked incorrectly
The crawler excavator cannot be parked randomly. It must be parked in a flat place. If it is uneven, it will cause uneven stress on the crawler of the excavator. The crawler on one side bears a large weight, and the crawler is easily to cause the crawler to be broken or cracked due to stress concentration.
