How to prevent gantry crane bearings rust?
Gantry cranes are widely used on construction sites of large-scale projects and can help the effective progress of projects. For a wide variety of gantry cranes, its bearings are a very important part, but if you do not pay attention to maintenance and correct use methods, it is easy to cause rust and affect normal use, then how to prevent rust?
Use anti-rust oil to apply appropriate anti-rust oil (isolating air) on a clean basis, and the application of anti-rust oil will also choose the appropriate application method according to the use and size of the gantry crane. The method of applying anti-rust oil is as follows:
1. Soaking method: For relatively small bearings, they can be soaked in anti-rust grease, so that the grease adheres to the bearing surface, thereby playing a protective role. And the thickness of the oil film can be adjusted according to the actual situation by adjusting the temperature and viscosity.
2. Spray method: For large gantry cranes, the spray method will be more suitable and convenient. It is suitable for solvent-diluted anti-rust oil or thin-layer anti-rust oil, but it must be carried out with complete fire protection and labor protection measures.
Surface cleaning for the cleaning of gantry crane bearings, a suitable method must be selected according to the nature of its material and environmental conditions. Common cleaning methods include chemical treatment cleaning method, mechanical cleaning method and solvent cleaning method. And it should be noted that the surface needs to be dried after cleaning. You can use filtered dry compressed air to dry it, or use a dryer to dry it. In addition, under simple conditions, the bearings of the gantry crane can also be wiped dry with cotton cloth.
