In machinery manufacturing, heavy equipment assembly and steel structure turning operations, large machine components are usually bulky and heavy. Relying on cranes or manual collaboration for turning is not only inefficient but also carries significant safety risks. By using professional load turning device, safe and controlled rotation of large machine components can be achieved, greatly improving operational safety and production efficiency.
Challenges in Rotation Operations of Large Machine Components
Heavy workpiece weight and strong inertia easily lead to the risk of loss of control
Asymmetric center of gravity makes it difficult to maintain balance with traditional lifting methods
Manual-assisted turning poses safety hazards such as pinching and falling accidents
Multiple rounds of lifting and adjustment affect production rhythm and assembly precision
How KUNFENG Load Turning Device Improve Operational Safety
Turning device realizes controlled rotation of workpieces through mechanical structures and electric drive systems, avoiding risks caused by unstable lifting. Their core advantages include:
Controlled rotation: Rotation angles can be precisely controlled to prevent sudden tilting or impact
Stable support: Workpieces maintain stable force bearing throughout the rotation process
Reduced manual intervention: Minimizing manual participation significantly lowers the probability of safety accidents
Belt slings: Prevent damage to the mechanical components being turned
Advantages of Combined Use with Overhead Crane
Load turning device is usually used in conjunction with overhead crane to form a safe and efficient material handling solution. With proper configuration, complex turning and assembly operations can be completed without additional manpower, while improving the overall operational safety level.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the maximum load capacity of the turning device?
A: The load capacity ranges from 1 ton to 50 tons. When selecting a model, it is necessary to verify according to the workpiece weight, center of gravity and safety factor.
Q: How to ensure that the workpiece does not slip during rotation?
A: Stable support is achieved through customized slings, balanced lifting point design, as well as braking/locking mechanisms.
Q: Will the installation of the turning device affect the existing lifting system?
A: Minor modifications to lifting points, control logic and electrical interconnection are usually required, and we can provide compatibility solutions.
