玻璃行業(yè)維護(hù)與維修焊接解決方案

Heat and Abrasion - It may sometimes appear that the maintenance engineer working in the glass industry has a much easier role than his counterpart in a foundry or forge. However, MWA  recognises that this is not the case when considering sand is the main material used for manufacturing glass. Heat and abrasion are predominant in almost all stages of the process, generating a constant battle to minimise their effect.

熱和磨損 - 有時(shí)看來(lái)，在玻璃行業(yè)工作的維修工程師比在鑄造廠(chǎng)或鍛造廠(chǎng)工作的維修工程師要容易得多。然而，MWA公司認(rèn)識(shí)到，當(dāng)考慮到沙子是制造玻璃的主要材料時(shí)，情況并非如此。熱和磨損幾乎在過(guò)程的所有階段都占主導(dǎo)地位，應(yīng)想辦法盡量減少其影響。

MWA International Ltd. - We have over 30 years experience working along side maintenance departments in all industries. Our aim is always to save companies money, we do this by reducing down-time and increasing the life of worn parts. This guide will isolate some of the more common problem areas within your industry, (see list below). Using our specialist knowledge we are able to provide a solution, minimising wear and in doing so generate large cost savings for your company.

Problems & Solutions

問(wèn)題與解決方案

As a manufacturer we pride ourselves in not only supplying the right product for the job but also in ensuring that the correct methods of application are used before, during and after welding. Remember, If you are lucky enough to own a Ferrari, but put the wrong petrol in it, you can be sure it will not perform to its optimum.

作為一家制造商，我們不僅為客戶(hù)提供正確的焊接產(chǎn)品，而且確保在焊接之前、期間和之后使用正確的應(yīng)用方法，我們?yōu)榇烁械阶院?。?qǐng)記住，如果你有幸擁有一輛法拉利，但放錯(cuò)了汽油，你可以肯定它不會(huì)發(fā)揮其正常性能。

1. Mixer Blades - These are subject to severe abrasion caused during the highly abrasive mixing process. Depending on individual circumstances one of 3 welding processes may be used: Arc welding, Gas welding, Powder Welding. In some cases the increase of life of a mixer blade can be as much as 300%.

攪拌機(jī)葉片 - 在高研磨性混合過(guò)程中，這些材料會(huì)受到嚴(yán)重磨損。根據(jù)具體情況，可采用以下3種焊接工藝中的一種：電弧焊、氣焊、粉末焊接等。在某些情況下，攪拌機(jī)葉片的使用壽命可提高300%。

2. Cullet Crusher Jaws or Hammers - During the crushing process of the cullet severe abrasion occurs. When using our Mac Trode series electrode please do with the correct preparation and post welding treatment.

破碎機(jī)顎或錘 - 在破碎過(guò)程中發(fā)生嚴(yán)重磨損。當(dāng)使用我們的Mac Trode 系列焊條時(shí)，應(yīng)進(jìn)行正確的準(zhǔn)備和焊后處理。

3. Furnace Repairs - With working temperatures often as high as 1400°C parts are prone to cracking and spalling. Using specialised nickel based electrodes such as Mac Stain E102 or Inconel type electrodes like our Mac Nicro E213 or Mac Nicro E215, these parts can easily be repaired leaving them better prepared to withstand such elevated temperatures.

熔爐維修 - 工作溫度通常高達(dá)1400°C零件容易開(kāi)裂和剝落。使用專(zhuān)門(mén)的鎳基不銹鋼焊條如Mac Stain E102；或Inconel型焊條如Mac Nicro E213或 E215，這些零件可以很容易地修復(fù)，使它們能夠更好地承受這樣的高溫。

4. Glass Moulds - A combination of both heat and abrasion cause wear on small areas of moulds. Either arc welding or powder welding process may be used depending on the specific application. A common concern when repairing such parts is the potential for slight undercut to occur. With our help and guidance we will show you how to avoid this and reduce any problems machining afterwards.

玻璃模具 - 熱和磨損的結(jié)合會(huì)導(dǎo)致模具小面積磨損。根據(jù)具體應(yīng)用，可采用電弧焊或粉末焊接工藝。修理此類(lèi)零件時(shí)，一個(gè)常見(jiàn)的問(wèn)題是可能發(fā)生輕微的咬邊。如有需要，我們可以幫助和指導(dǎo)客戶(hù)如何避免這種情況并減少以后的任何問(wèn)題。

5. Conveyors - Areas of concern when reclaiming conveyor parts usually centre upon rebuilding worn areas caused by abrasion. However, simply combating this problem does not eleviate difficulties caused by vibration. Using our specialised electrode Mac Trode E66 both of these problems can be overcome, leaving the part or section far stronger than in its original form.

輸送機(jī) - 修復(fù)輸送機(jī)零件時(shí)，關(guān)注通常集中在恢復(fù)磨損造成的區(qū)域。然而，僅僅解決這個(gè)問(wèn)題并不能消除由振動(dòng)引起的困難。使用我們的特種鋼焊條Mac Trode E66，這兩個(gè)問(wèn)題都可以克服，使零件或部件比原來(lái)更堅(jiān)固。

6. Loading Buckets - With the constant flow of glass and concrete over

the loading buckets extreme wear is prevalent. One of the main problems here is the large area that needs to be welded. However, in our range of hard facing electrodes we have a special tubular rod designed for such applications. Mac Hard E335T is designed to deposit at very low amperages giving minimum base  dilution and high recovery rates.

裝載斗 - 隨著玻璃和混凝土不斷涌進(jìn)裝載斗，極易磨損。這里的一個(gè)主要問(wèn)題是需要焊接的面積很大。然而，在我們的硬面耐磨焊條系列中，我們有一種專(zhuān)為此類(lèi)應(yīng)用而設(shè)計(jì)的特殊管狀焊條。硬面堆焊焊條Mac Hard E335T設(shè)計(jì)用于在非常低的電流下堆焊，提供最小稀釋和高回收率。

7. Gears and sprockets - the repair of these parts is common throughout

most industries including the glass industry. These parts are usually either cast iron or cast steel and can be easily repaired using the correct pre-heat and post weld procedures.

齒輪和鏈輪 - 這些零件的維修在包括玻璃行業(yè)在內(nèi)的大多數(shù)行業(yè)都很常見(jiàn)。這些零件通常是鑄鐵或鑄鋼，使用正確的預(yù)熱和焊后程序可以很容易地修復(fù)。

8. Shafts and Spindles - By using the Powder Welding process these

universal wear problems can easily be solved at large cost savings to your company rather than contracting the repairs out.

軸和主軸 - 通過(guò)使用粉末焊接工藝，這些普遍磨損問(wèn)題可以很容易地得到解決，從而大大節(jié)省貴公司的成本，而不必外包維修。 

9. Pumps and Impellers - Despite the wide variety of materials pumps and 

impellers can be made from there are specific electrodes available for all base metal types whether it be cast iron, stainless steel, cast steel, etc. Using the correct welding procedures the risk of cracking and distortion can be eliminated ensuring a cost saving is made.

泵和葉輪 - 盡管泵和葉輪的材料種類(lèi)繁多，但所有母材類(lèi)型（無(wú)論是鑄鐵、不銹鋼、鑄鋼等）都有特定的焊材可用。使用正確的焊接程序，可以消除開(kāi)裂和變形的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，確保節(jié)約成本。 

10. Furnace Charger Tongues - Elevated temperatures are the main reason for wear, therefore using welding electrodes designed to combat up to 1400°C will enable repairs to be made. It must be noted that the part will then be far better equipped to withstand these extreme temperatures after being welded, ensuring an increase in part life.

爐加料舌 - 高溫是磨損的主要原因，因此使用設(shè)計(jì)用于抵抗高達(dá)1400°C的焊材將能夠進(jìn)行維修。必須注意的是，焊接后的零件將更好地承受這些極端溫度，確保零件壽命的增加。
