The Demag wheel blocking system has the characteristics of strong bearing capacity, high temperature resistance, wear resistance, precise positioning, long service life, and convenient maintenance in the electroslag furnace. The following is a detailed introduction to the necessity and characteristics of the travel wheel block in the electroslag furnace.

The necessity of the Demag modular drive system in an electroslag furnace

As heavy smelting equipment, such as steel, the furnace body and furnace cover of the electroslag furnace are usually very heavy. During operation, to complete tasks such as charging, slag removal, and maintenance, it is necessary to frequently lift the furnace cover or move the entire furnace body. Therefore, the electroslag furnace must be equipped with a reliable traveling wheel block to achieve these movements. The travel wheel block needs to operate in a high-temperature and harsh environment, withstand heavy loads, and maintain stability and precision to ensure the safety and precise positioning of the furnace body during movement. It can be said that only a travel wheel block system with high load capacity and high reliability can meet the needs of electroslag furnace operation.

Characteristics of the Demag wheel blocking system

Strong bearing capacity: The bearing capacity of each wheel can reach tens of tons, which can easily support the weight of the electroslag furnace body at high temperature.

Smooth operation: Ductile iron wheels are used, which have self-lubricating properties and greatly reduce operating friction. Under precise control, the furnace body is ensured to be smooth, stable and accurately positioned during movement.

High temperature and wear resistance: Some models of wheel blocks have a high temperature resistance design and can adapt to external conditions above 150°C or bearing temperatures up to 350°C; ductile iron wheel hubs ensure excellent wear resistance.

Easy maintenance: The wheel block adopts a five-sided sealed casting shell to reliably protect the wheel set from mechanical impact; large bearings are lubricated for life and equipped with wear indicators, which can be remotely monitored, reduce daily maintenance workload, and extend the service life of the equipment.
