What Is The Reason For The Wire Rope Breakage?

In daily operation, the wire rope may be damaged or broken due to improper operation. The broken wire rope has the following specific points:

1. It is related to the number of winding times on the gourd or drum.

Every time the wire rope is wound on the gourd or the drum, the wire rope will change from straight to curved, and then from curved to straight. During this process, the wire rope will inevitably be damaged, so the more winding times and the more serious the overload, the easier it is to wear Breakage is related to the diameter of the pulley or drum. The smaller the diameter of the hoist and drum, the more severe the bending and the easier it is to damage.

2. It is related to the working level and the use environment (temperature, corrosive gas).

3. Related to use, storage and maintenance.

4. The binding is related to the radius of curvature of the bend.

The main reason is that when the steel wire rope goes around the drum to hang objects, the steel wire rope is repeatedly bent and repeatedly squeezed and rubbed under strong thrust, causing metal fatigue and wear, and the steel wire on the surface is gradually broken.
