How to improve the service life of concrete mixer

2024-11-28



To improve the service life of concrete mixers, we can start from the following aspects:
 
1. Correct use:
  • Follow the operating procedures of the mixer and do not overload it.
  • Adjust the mixing speed and duration based on the specific materials being mixed to prevent undue wear.
  • Ensure the correct proportion of concrete to avoid damage to the mixer caused by too hard or too thin concrete.
 
2. Regular cleaning:
  • Clean the concrete residue on the mixing barrel and mixing blades in time after each use to prevent hardening and corrosion.
  • Ensure regular cleaning of both the interior and exterior of the mixer to maintain equipment cleanliness.
 
3. Lubrication and maintenance:
  • Check and add lubricating oil regularly to ensure that the bearings, gears and other moving parts of the mixer are well lubricated.
  • When changing the lubricating oil, make sure to clean the old oil and use new oil that meets the specifications.
  •  
4. Inspection and maintenance:
  • Regularly check the various parts of the mixer, such as mixing blades, motors, reducers, chains, etc., and replace them in time if they are worn or damaged.
  • Regular inspections and maintenance of the electrical components should be conducted by qualified professionals.
 
5. Material selection:
  • Select mixing blades and mixing barrels constructed from wear-resistant materials to minimize wear.
  • Use high-quality lubricating oil and grease to reduce wear and extend service life.
 
6. Operator training:
  • Provide professional training for operators to ensure that they understand the correct operation and maintenance methods of concrete mixers.
 
7. Environmental control:
  • Operate the mixer in a dry and well-ventilated environment to mitigate the impact of moisture and corrosive gases.
  • For mixers used outdoors, rain and sun protection measures should be taken.
  •  
8. Reasonable use arrangement:
  • Ensure adequate rest periods to avoid continuous and uninterrupted use, thereby preventing overheating.
  •  
Through the above measures, the service life of the concrete mixer can be effectively improved, maintenance costs can be reduced, and production efficiency can be improved.
