Excavators have become the main models in the market and for many operations. Because excavators are generally constructed in relatively harsh environments, it is inevitable that the track will be loose, damaged, broken, and other faults. So what is the reason for the excessive wear of the track shoe for excavator? Let's take a look together!
1. Driving on uneven roads:
When excavators are engaged in earthwork projects, the working site is generally uneven. In such terrain conditions, if the track shoe for excavator is not careful when walking, the weight of the machine body will tend to be localized, and the local pressure will increase, which will cause certain damage to the local track shoe for excavator and cause looseness problems.
2. Improper operation when turning:
When the excavator is turning, the track shoe for excavator on one side is moving and the track shoe for excavator on the other side is not moving, and a large-scale rotation movement occurs. If the track is blocked by the raised part on the ground, it will be stuck to the track on the rotating side, and the track can be easily strained.

3. Long-term walking operation:
Excavators cannot be driven on the road for too long like cars. The operator needs to pay special attention to one point. Crawler excavators cannot walk for too long. This will not only cause great damage to the track shoe for excavator, but also affect the service life of the equipment. Therefore, the moving walking distance of the excavator must be controlled.
4. Failure to clean up the gravel in the crawler in time:
When the crawler excavator is working or moving, some gravel or soil will enter the crawler. If it is not removed in time before walking, the gravel will be squeezed between the drive wheel, guide wheel and crawler as the track shoe for excavator rotates. Over time, the crawler of the excavator will loosen and cause chain rails to break.
5. The parking of the excavator is not reasonable:
The parking of the crawler excavator cannot be vague. It must be parked on a flat place. If it is uneven, it will cause uneven force on the track shoe for excavator. The track shoe for excavator on one side bears a large weight, which is easy to cause the crawler to be broken or cracked due to stress concentration.
The above are the conditions that accelerate the wear of excavator tracks. Everyone must be careful. For more information, please follow Huayang Heavy Industry.
