A strong inspection routine prevents most crane brake incidents. Daily (pre-shift) checks should include visual inspection for leaks (thrusters/hydraulics), abnormal noise, signs of dragging (unusual heat or smell), loose fasteners, damaged cables/hoses, and obvious lining or disc/brake wheel damage. Confirm the brake applies and releases normally during initial test movements.
Weekly or scheduled routine checks should measure lining thickness, verify air gap/shoe clearance, confirm thruster stroke or coil release performance, inspect pins/bushings for play, and check disc/brake wheel condition for scoring, blueing, or cracks. If switches are installed, test brake-open, wear, and limit interlocks.
소견을 문서화하고 마모율을 추적하십시오—예측 교체는 가동 중단을 줄입니다. 호이스트 브레이크의 경우 안전한 시험 조건에서 제어된 유지력 검사를 포함하십시오. 점검은 OEM 매뉴얼 및 해당 크레인 안전 기준을 따라야 하며, 특히 고하중 운전 또는 야외 환경에서는 더욱 중요합니다.
