Screw conveyor is the main transfer equipment used in waste management field.It also called U-shape screw conveyor.
For a continously transfer of materials, it is improtant to maintenance it in suitable way.
Below are some suggestion on drilling waste screw conveyor maintenance:
1) Befor start the waste tranfer screw conveyor, add specified gear lubricant.
2) Reducer working ambiant temperature: -40 ~ 60 ℃, if the ambient temperature too high, it is necessary to take measures to cooling it.
3) Reducer should be compatible with magnetic starter, allowing the torque range, to protect motor and gear from damage;
4) Reducer suitable for continuous operation, and allow both positive and negative to the operation;
5) If you change the motor, reducer installed position, the need to mirror swap oil, oil plugs, ventilation cap;
6) Lubricating oil must be changed regularly;
6.1) From the first time use, the geared motor should change lubrication oil after 300 hours running.
6.2) In normal circumstances, the geared motor lubricating oil should be replaced every 5000 hours running;
6.3) Per lubricating oil standard, check quality of the oil regularly;
6.4)Use the same brand lubricating oil for screw conveyor geared motor. Never mix different brands;
6.5) If there is abnormal noise or phenomena from the screw conveyor transfer, should stop in time, identify the reasons for troubleshooting, to continue to run;
6.6) If there is any quality problem of geared motor, contact with manufacturer or vendor, not dismantle.
7) Check auger and liner wear periodcally, if liner thickness ≦ 2mm, replaced it.
8) Professional operators on a regular basis (2 hours) inspection, focusing on observation of spiral run the sound, the sound occurs when abnormal operation must be stopped immediately, identify the cause and treatment before reuse.
9) Gearbox oil level checked once a week, less than the sight glass should be in place to replenish the same grade gear oil to prevent gear damage caused by lack of oil.
10) Occurred during use of the cover fastening screws loose in time, off the screws should be promptly filled, otherwise it will create a larger spiral with vibration and noise associated with, the use of security will decline.
11) Regular inspection fastened securely supporting frames fasteners degree, is strictly prohibited screw loose or peeling!
12) Important: Open the tank cover must be checked when the power is disconnected!
