Gosan sheaves

During the annual inspection of the 12t auxiliary crane, a number of cable sheaves appeared to contain little cracks. Due to this, the crane was no longer allowed to be used.

Replacement sheaves for crane

In the short term, a solution was needed that would also solve the lubrication problem. Until then, the discs were lubricated manually, and they now preferred a central lubrication system. 

Together with the MBTS company, it was decided to renew the shafts and bronze bearings in addition to new sheaves. 

Our customer instructed us to ensure that the installation could operate for as long as possible without disruption.  

Because no drawings were available, it was decided to order the sheaves in such a way that the width could still be adjusted after dismantling the old sheaves. 

Although the delivery of the sheaves took several weeks, the actual conversion took place in only three days.
