4.2.4 Handling
For handling operations on “DGT” drive units
or
endcarriages, proceed as follows:
•
Prepared a suitable demarcated area, with a flat level flooring, for unloading and storing the materials.
•
Depending on the type of shipping packaging and indications illustrated at point 4.2.3, prepare the necessary
equipment for unloading and handling the various packagings, taking into consideration their weight, dimensions
and lifting elements.
•
No special tools are required.
•
Any packages with accessories weighing less than 30 kg can be handled manually.
•
Secure and lift all components with care in the unloading area, avoiding dangerous oscillations and unbalancing
of the loads being moved.
•
Once the handling operations have been completed, check the packages to make certain they have not been
damaged.
All materials must be handled with care, using suitable transport and lifting equipment, so as to
avoid generating dangerous risks due to a loss of stability.
4.2.5 Removing the packaging
•
Open the packagings and remove the various parts using suitable equipment in relation to their weight and lifting
points (see point 4.2.3).
•
Check to make certain all materials in the shipment are whole and that no parts and/or accessories are missing.
Promptly notify the manufacturer of any damage or missing parts.
•
To store the materials, follow the instructions outlined at section 4.5.1 “Storing the units and parts”.
Dispose of all packaging materials following the indications prescribed by local ordinances in
relation to their nature (wood, plastic, carton) and differentiating the materials for recycling
purposes.
4.3 – Installing “DGT” drive units and endcarriages
•
The installation of “DGT” drive units and endcarriages, in their various configurations,
refers to the process of “incorporating” the components into a more complex assembly.
•
Specifically, two types of “incorporating” processes can be adopted:
1. Incorporating the “DGT” drive units onto a crane beam
(sect. 4.3.1)
2. Incorporating the “DGT” drive units onto a bridge crane
(sect. 4.3.2)
Before proceeding with “incorporating” the “DGT” drive units and beams, carry out the
following controls:
•
check that the performance specifications of the components are suitable for the type of service required
(capacity, speed, ISO/FEM classification, dimensions of sliding rail, available space, etc.).
•
check that no damage has resulted to component during transport operations.
•
if the component has been stored in a humid or tropical location for en extended period of time, check the
brakes, and if necessary, remove the gluing on the brake surfaces.
•
use grease to lubricate the drive shaft that will be joined to the offset geared motor and wheel.
