Cracks and fracture in the ball mill hollow shaft are common in cement industry, generally appearing in R angle of hollow shaft and extending to the surface or the flange, if the cracks and fracture are not found out timely, there may be equipment accidents, therefore early detection and prevention of hollow shaft crack is an important topic in cement enterprises.

Next, Great Wall Steel Casting will introduce how to detect and prevent the cracks in the hollow shaft of the ball mill.

1. Increase the size of the R angle of the hollow shaft, and appropriately increase the thickness, strength, and decrease the stess of the R angle without affacting the installation of discharge sieve.

2. Strengthen the quality control on hollow shaft in manufacturing process, and strictly perform flaw detection during casting and processing.

3. Regularly inspection
(1) Afert one year's operation, measure the ball mill elevation, reducer centerline and horizontal line during the annual overhaul time, and conduct adjustment according to the measurement situation.
Regular inspection and adjustment can effectively improve the life of the hollow shaft and reduce the risk of hollow shaft cracks.

(2) Every 3 months, take use of slow turnning device to check the surface situation of the hollow shaft, the fastening situation of flange bolts, and the surface cracks of bolt holes.

(3) During the running process of ball mill, adjust the parameters according to the actual capacity of the mill, to avoid overload operation and fail-safe operation and improve life service of ball mill hollow shaft.
