Analysis of Failure Causes in Mobile Crushing Plants
What aspects should be considered to ensure the proper operation of mobile crushing plants, thereby minimizing equipment failures and achieving stable production?
(1) Load: The primary causes of wear-related failures in mechanical equipment are component wear and fatigue failure. Under specified operating conditions, the wear of components per unit time is directly proportional to the magnitude of the load. Fatigue failure, however, occurs only under alternating loads and intensifies as the load increases. Therefore, both wear and fatigue are functions of the load. When the load exceeds the design rating, severe damage will result, which is unacceptable.
(2) Environment: This includes the influence of climate, corrosive media, and other harmful substances, as well as the condition of the workpiece. Rising temperatures accelerate wear and corrosion; excessive humidity and the presence of corrosive agents in the air cause corrosion and corrosion-induced wear; excessive dust in the air and harsh working conditions also contribute to damage. However, the environment is an objective factor, and in some cases, measures can be taken to improve it.
(3) Maintenance and Operation: Establishing a reasonable maintenance system and strictly adhering to technical maintenance and operating procedures are essential conditions for ensuring the reliable operation of mobile crushing plants and extending their service life. Additionally, personnel training is necessary to improve their skills and proficiency.
