Rope Drum
Changing out crane rope drums or replacing the
wire rope is a demanding and time consuming operation for your maintenance
team. Based on a study conducted by a technical association that supports
the steel industry, the number one reason for replacing rope drums is wear
of the grooves.
Wear can make the top surface of the separating land extremely sharp,
creating the potential for cutting the wire rope. Wear in the base of the
grooves results in corrugations that prevent the wire rope from twisting,
pinching and damaging the rope. The answer to address both of these problems
is in the material and heat treatment of your rope drum.
