Some hoist and crane action today 🏗️ These hoists by Harrington offer the benefit of single-phase operation, including an integrated VFD which allows for field programming of two speeds. Why is this important? It offers significant flexibility to the customer when setting up their work cell. Additionally, the hoist features a "no-load" high speed that allows the hoist to raise and lower at a rate of 30% above its max speed when "no-load" is detected. Keep an eye out for a full case study soon! #cranes #industrialcranes #materialhandling #Manufacturing

Some commissioning of a new control system for an overhead crane today. It’s an existing crane we are replacing the control panel and motors on. ProfiSafe drive system with master/follower between the 2 hoist converters. The touch panel on the front displays the configuration and condition monitoring system. #electricalengineering #overheadcrane #liftingequipment #cranes #engineering #industria40 #industrialautomation

🚀 High-end yokes also need high-end maintenance technology 😎 For this reason, we have come up with something very special: To enable us to transform our yokes from the retracted transport position to the extended working position as quickly and easily as possible during servicing, we are using a new in-house development: a hydraulic telescopic lifting device. ✅ ➡️ The big advantage: the new lifting device is mobile and can, therefore, be moved from yoke to yoke in the maintenance hall at any time. This means we can dispense with the overhead crane in this maintenance process. 😀We think so: The yoke and lifting device cut a fine figure. What do you think? #ematec #engineering #maintainance #service #windpower #windenergy

According to an article in Turbomachinery Magazine, the MRO (maintenance, repair, and overhaul) market is continuing to show signs of growth and is expected to reach an estimated $17.8 billion in 2024. (This is according to the market research firm Lucintel.) “The existing fleet of gas turbines from the construction wave of the late 90s to early 2000s will soon require extensive maintenance,” said Mike Petticord, Plant Manager at IHI Power Services Corp. https://lnkd.in/gUwENWBb An often overlooked part of the MRO process is the overhead lifting equipment found in most repair facilities. Turbines can be cumbersome and because of their size, may require slow controlled, precise movements during the teardown, inspection, machining, and rebuild process. If you require more control from your current lifting equipment, Konecranes can help with new equipment or upgrading your existing system to meet your current needs. https://lnkd.in/gQQ-_aU7

We recently attended an offshore platform to investigate an engine that was producing large amounts of black smoke, with a running speed that had dropped to 1200rpm. Fairly quickly after arriving, it was clear there was a problem with the turbocharger. And while the easiest thing to do would be to say, “That’s broken, you need a new one, we’ll supply and fit one”, that’s not how we operate. At Bartech, we seek to understand WHY something has broken, whether there are any other residual problems arising from the broken part, and what the best next step is. We got busy investigating and quickly found that the compressor wheel inside the turbocharger had pieces missing This caused debris to enter the engine, with some being found in the intercooler, so we began dismantling the engine to check how far the debris had travelled. The good news was that having removed the seized turbo, the intercooler and the cylinder heads, it was clear that there was no more to find. We started the rebuild process, and after replacing the turbocharger and rebuilding the engine, it was filled with water. Carrying out our prestart checks on the pistons and rods, we checked the oil flows and noticed water leaking from liner A1. The liner was removed and everything became clear – the liner o-rings had become compressed and flattened, and as a result, they were no longer able to seal effectively. We changed those, and refitted the liner, which solved the problem of water leakage. Check back in next week for the potential mistake we avoided before we re-installed the piston… *The damaged turbocharger will be brought to HQ and dismantled to find the cause of failure. #Turbocharger #investigation #engineering

The hoist brake is one of the most critical wearing components in a crane. The brake is looked at during inspections, but with heavily used cranes, the service lifetime of brake wearing parts may end sooner than expected. Additional inspections also require crane shutdown and provide only a snapshot of the current condition of the brake. #TRUCONNECTBrakeMonitoring uses a condition monitoring device to collect the status of brake air gap, mechanical and electrical faults from the electromagnetic disc brakes. #Benefits : ⚙ Provides visibility to brake condition between normal inspection visits ⚙ Helps minimize the risk of load drop with the detection of brake faults ⚙ Helps you avoid unnecessary brake disassembly for inspection ⚙ Enables predictive brake maintenance ⚙ Assists in further optimization of maintenance activities to reduce unplanned downtime and to improve equipment safety, productivity and lifecycle value. 💡 More info.: https://okt.to/aOxJ7S #konecranes #TRUCONNECT #craneservice #service #cranes #uk #Ireland #engineering
