In the operation of the excavator, the track chain and track shoe (track group) are an indispensable part of the chassis system. Their performance directly affects the working efficiency, life and operational stability of the excavator.
Functions and Roles of Excavator Track Group
The Role of Track Chain
The excavator track chain is mainly responsible for transmitting power to the crawler to ensure the movement of the machine. It is the core component connecting the drive wheel and the track shoe, and needs to withstand huge tension and torque.
The Role of Track Shoe
The track shoe contacts the ground, provides traction for the excavator and maintains the stability of the machine. It needs to cope with wear and impact in complex terrain and harsh environments.
Material Selection of Excavator Track Group
High-quality track chain and track shoe are usually made of high-strength alloy steel, and their tensile strength and wear resistance are improved through heat treatment. The following are the key characteristics of both:
Track chain material: should have high hardness and toughness to prevent breakage and premature wear.
Track shoe material: needs to have good corrosion resistance and impact resistance to cope with mud, water and other harsh working conditions.
Common Problems of Excavator Track Group
Improper track chain tension
Problem manifestation: Too loose or too tight track chain will cause the track to fall off or accelerate component wear.
Solution: Check the track chain tightness regularly to ensure that it is within the manufacturer’s recommended range.
Severe track chain plate wear
Problem manifestation: Excessive wear on the chain plate surface will reduce traction and affect driving stability.
Solution: Choose a more wear-resistant chain plate material according to the working conditions, and replace wear parts regularly.
Rusted or broken chain pin
Problem manifestation: Broken or rusted chain pin will cause chain failure and affect the normal operation of the excavator.
Solution: Pay attention to lubrication and cleaning, and avoid long-term exposure to humid environments.
How To Correctly Choose Excavator Track Group
Matchability
Ensure that the specifications of the track chain and track shoe meet the requirements of the excavator model to avoid installation problems or performance degradation due to size mismatch.
Quality certification
Choose suppliers that have passed ISO quality system certification, whose products are more guaranteed in manufacturing process and performance.
Durability test
High-quality track chain and track shoe usually undergo rigorous durability tests to ensure that they can perform well in different working environments.
After-sales service
Reliable manufacturers usually provide comprehensive after-sales support, including installation guidance, daily maintenance recommendations and timely replacement services.
Daily maintenance and maintenance recommendations
Cleaning and lubrication
Regularly clean the sand and impurities on the surface of the track chain and track shoe, and use suitable lubricants to reduce wear.
Tightening inspection
Check the tightness of the chain connection to avoid looseness and chain derailment or poor operation.
Regularly replace wear parts
When the track chain and track shoe are obviously worn or deformed, they should be replaced in time to ensure the performance and safety of the excavator.
