The situation of wire rope flattening is more complex, and often needs to be analyzed and processed in actual work to find the best solution.
There are many reasons for wire rope flattening, mainly including the following points:
Uneven force: the wire rope in the work will often withstand different directions of the force, if the uneven force, it will lead to the deformation of the wire rope, and eventually may form flattening.
Long service life: wire rope in use will inevitably be affected by wear and corrosion, if the service life is too long, the strength and toughness of the wire rope will decline, prone to flattening.
External factors: external factors such as temperature, humidity, chemical substances, etc., will affect the steel wire rope, easy to cause deformation and damage to the steel wire rope, resulting in the formation of flattening.
The existence of wire rope flattening will have an impact on the service life and safety of the wire rope.
Service life: The existence of wire rope flattening will cause the strength and toughness of the wire rope to decline, thereby shortening the service life.
Safety: The existence of wire rope flattening will cause the overall strength of the wire rope to decline, which may lead to safety accidents at work.
The detection of steel wire rope flattening needs to be carried out during the use of steel wire rope, mainly including the following points:
Appearance detection: Observe whether the surface of the wire rope is flattened by the naked eye.
Size detection: Determine whether the wire rope is flattened by measuring the diameter of the wire rope and the width of the flattening part.
Mechanical properties testing: Through the tensile test of the wire rope, determine whether the strength and toughness of the wire rope meet the requirements.
The treatment scheme of steel wire rope flattening needs to be determined according to the specific situation, the following are several common treatment schemes:
Replace the wire rope: If the wire rope flattening is serious and cannot be repaired, it is recommended to replace the new wire rope.
Repair the flattening part: If the flattening is not very serious, it can be repaired by pressing or stamping the flat part.
strengthen maintenance: For the service life of the wire rope is too long, you can extend its service life by strengthening maintenance, such as regular cleaning, lubrication and rust prevention.
Wire rope flattening is a common form of wire rope damage, which will affect the overall strength and service life of the wire rope. There are many reasons for wire rope flattening, including uneven force, long service life and external factors. The existence of steel wire rope flattening will affect the service life and safety of steel wire rope. The detection of steel wire rope flattening needs to be carried out during the use of steel wire rope, mainly including appearance detection, size detection and mechanical property detection. For the severely flattened wire rope, it is recommended to replace the new wire rope; For the steel wire rope that is not seriously flattened, its service life can be extended by repairing and strengthening maintenance.
