Each component of the Zomax wire rope drum is meticulously designed and manufactured for strength, durability, and reliability. The appropriate pitch and groove depth reduce the damage of the wire rope due to wear between the grooves.
A wide range of sizes and tailored designs are available to accommodate specific requirements, considering factors such as different mounting methods, speed reducers, and various material handling crane configurations and capacities.
If you have any questions or need further information, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.
1. Wire rope drums available in Different Materials:
Cast iron drums: Self-lubricating, offering better protection for the wire rope.
Steel plate drums: Made from Q235 or Q345 steel plates. Easier and more cost-effective to produce, ideal for large-diameter drums.
2. Available Drum Types Based on Installation and Gearbox Configuration:
Drums with a toothed disc
External gear drums
Drums with couplings
Drums with brake discs
European-style drums
3. Available Drum Types Based on the type of equipment they are paired with:
Electric hoist drums
Double-beam crane drum sets
Winch drums
Capstan drums
Automated storage system drums
4. The standardized design of wire rope drums make it suitable for a variety of lifting heights
5. The width of large diameter drums is kept minimal to allow a safe rope winding angle, extending the lifespan of the wire rope.
6. Ultrasonic Testing(UT)and Magnetic Particle Testing (MT) are used to verify the welding quality and ensure the strength and rigidity of the drum
7. Lathe machine ensure that the dimensions and tolerances of the wire rope drum meet the required specifications .
8. When a rotary limit switch is installed at one end of the drum, it is ensured that the drum shaft is synchronized with the limit switch to prevent malfunctions.
