Hydraulic shear for excavator has become essential core equipment in fields such as demolition, scrap recycling, and disaster relief.
However, many equipment owners and operators often face a series of difficult issues and pain points during procurement and use.
This article will delve into these pain points and provide professional solutions.
Pain point 1: Improper equipment selection cannot exert optimal performance
The most common mistake many users make when purchasing excavator hydraulic shears is improper selection.
1. Problem manifestation: For example the 20 ton excavator is equipped with hydraulic shears for 30 ton excavator, which will lead to insufficient pressure in the excavator’s hydraulic system, slow action, and no shear force at all, and even cause serious damage to the main engine hydraulic system. On the contrary, if the hydraulic shears equipped with large excavators are too small, it will cause the resource waste of the “big carriage” and the return on investment is extremely low.
2. Solution: Strictly follow the matching principle. When selecting hydraulic shears, it is essential to first consider the tonnage, operating flow and pressure range of the excavator. A quality supplier will provide a details selection sheet to ensure that the attachment is perfectly match to the main unit to maximize operational efficiency and equipment life.
Pain point 2: Serious wear and high maintenance costs
Hydraulic shears work on hard metal and concrete, so wear of blades and pins is an inevitable core pain point.
1. Problem manifestation: The blade quickly becomes dull after frequent shearing, resulting in a decrease in shearing efficiency, increased oil consumption, and even “tearing” instead of “shearing”, generating a large amount of waste heat and burdening the hydraulic system. Wear of pins and bushings can cause equipment shaking and misalignment, affecting shear accuracy and posing safety hazards.
2. Solution: Invest in hydraulic shears equipped with replaceable, rotatable blades and wear-resistant bushings. This will greatly extend the service life. Regular grease topping and checking the gap between pins and bushings are key to reducing long-term maintenance costs.
Pain point 3: Versatility and applicable scenario limitations
A single shearing function sometimes fails to meet complex jobsite needs, which is also a common pain point.
1. Problem manifestation: The tasks on the construction site are changeable, sometimes it is necessary to cut steel bars, and sometimes it is necessary to crush concrete slabs. Frequent replacement of attachments, such as replacing the breaker, can take a lot of time and manpower, reducing equipment utilization.
2. Solution: Consider multifunctional hydraulic shears (for example SWT Double Cylinder Hydraulic Crusher). This type of shearing, the Cylinder is with large rod diameter and imported seals for large shear force, and it use USA speeder valve with short opening and closing time for high shearing efficiency.
Invest in a hydraulic shear that is scientifically design, reliable, perfectly match to your main machine, and easy to maintain, giving you higher productivity, lower operating costs, and a longer equipment life cycle, ultimately maximizing profits. Welcome to contact us.
