The crane wire rope drum is the core component of the lifting mechanism, which is mainly used for orderly winding and power transmission of wire rope to realize the lifting and lowering of heavy objects. As a key component of the load-bearing system, its performance directly affects the load capacity, running stability and safety of the crane. According to different application scenarios, it can be divided into two types: single-layer winding and multi-layer winding, which are widely used in various types of bridge, gantry, tower and port cranes.
As an important hub connecting the drive system and the hoisting equipment, the performance of the crane wire rope drum directly determines the load capacity, running stability and operation safety of the crane. According to the structural characteristics, it can be divided into three types: single-layer winding, multi-layer winding and friction.
In harsh working conditions such as metallurgy and ocean, it is necessary to use drums with special materials and protective designs, and shorten the maintenance cycle to 50% of conventional equipment. Crane wire rope drums have a wide range of applications, covering almost all industrial, construction, and logistics fields that require vertical lifting, horizontal traction, or luffing. The reliability of the crane wire rope drum design and manufacturing is directly related to the safe operation of the entire lifting equipment.
