Application of Centralized Lubrication System on Steel Grabbing Machine

The steel grabber is a multi-purpose and efficient material handling equipment, which is widely used in major steel mills, ports, yards, enterprise storage centers and other places to complete the loading, unloading and stacking of scrap steel and bulk cargo. The working conditions are seriously polluted by dust, and the working state is often in high intensity and overload, which brings great challenges to the lubrication of the equipment. Regular attention and timely lubrication and maintenance work are effective means to improve operational efficiency and extend its service life.

The model installed this time is a 45-ton steel grabber. The lubrication pump station and the double-line distributor are installed at the rear elevator position of the cab. The distributor and pipeline components are distributed at the three positions of the turntable, dipper and boom.

According to actual customer feedback, after installing the intelligent lubrication system, the lubrication hours are reduced by 53%, which improves productivity and profitability, reduces unplanned downtime and production interruptions, reduces labor costs, extends repair and maintenance intervals, reduces component replacement and spare parts inventory, and does not require manual lubrication of hard-to-reach lubrication points or points in harsh areas, reducing safety accidents.
