5 Maintenance Tips for Bucket Wheel Sand Washer

The bucket wheel sand washer is one of the indispensable equipment in the sand production line. Some minor faults will inevitably occur when the sand washer is used for a long time. This requires us to do daily maintenance work on the sand washer. Let me introduce the common faults and troubleshooting methods of the bucket wheel sand washing machine:

  1. Bucket wheel sand washing machine leaks sand or reduces sand washing volume
    Generally, this problem is caused by the damage of the sand mesh or the loosening of the bolts that fix the sand mesh. When this happens, check the bolts and sand net tighten the bolts in time, or replace with new sand net to ensure the normal operation of the sand washing machine.
  2. The gears of the bucket wheel sand washer are worn or damaged
    When the equipment of the sand washer is not maintained in time or the shaft of the sand washer does not reach the specified parallelism, the gears are prone to wear and damage. In severe cases, the bearings may be damaged. Therefore, when installing the sand washer, pay attention to the installation standard and distance to ensure the stability of the equipment, check whether the bearing is damaged in time, check the degree of wear of the sealing ring, if there is wear, replace it in time, and finally check the lubricating oil of the parts to maintain. The oil volume is above the volume line and is clean and pollution-free.
  3. Abnormal noise in the transmission mechanism
    When the gear structure of the transmission mechanism changes or the lubricating oil is insufficient, abnormal noises will occur, which will reduce the operating flexibility of the transmission mechanism. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the spacing between the gears and add lubricating oil in time.
  4. The frame vibrates during operation
    When the connecting bolts of the bearing seat or the equipment connection frame are loose, it may cause vibration of the frame. Therefore, the connecting bolts should be tightened after the equipment stops working, and the tightness of the bolts should be checked regularly in daily use.
  5. How to perform butter maintenance on the bucket wheel sand washer
    The bearing wear of bucket wheel sand washing machine is generally very large, and high-performance butter needs to be added. The maintenance of butter is very important. It can effectively reduce the wear of the vulnerable parts of the bucket wheel sand washer and prolong the service life. If the bearing is damaged and cracked, the repair cost is very high, and it will seriously affect the efficiency of sand washing.

The above introduced the daily maintenance work of the 5-point bucket wheel sand washer. Maintenance work is very important. It can not only reduce the failure rate of the equipment, reduce the loss of sand and gravel, increase the service life, but also save maintenance costs and ensure the normal operation of the equipment.
