Seals play a very important role in drilling and rock drilling rigs. Here’s how important seals are:
Prevention of leakage: Under the conditions of high pressure, high temperature and high-speed movement generated during the operation of drilling rigs and rock drills, liquid, gas and dust leakage are prone to occur. The role of the seal is to prevent leakage, to ensure that the medium will not leak out, and to ensure a clean and safe working environment.
Keep the working medium stable: Drilling rigs and rock drills use lubricating oil, hydraulic oil and other working medium. Seals can prevent the leakage and evaporation of these mediums, maintain the stability of the medium, and ensure the normal operation of mechanical equipment.
Prevent dust and impurities from entering: In the working environment of drilling rigs and rock drills, there will be a lot of impurities such as dust, sand, and gravel. Seals can effectively prevent these impurities from entering the interior of the machine, reducing the impact on wear and failure of mechanical parts.
Enhance the wear resistance of mechanical equipment: seals can not only prevent impurities from entering, but also reduce friction and wear between parts when mechanical equipment is running. Seals can withstand high-speed movement, high temperature and high pressure environments, and protect the core components of mechanical equipment.
Extended service life: The service life of the seal directly affects the life of the entire mechanical equipment. Good sealing can effectively reduce the wear and failure of parts, prolong the service life of mechanical equipment, and reduce the frequency and cost of maintenance and replacement.
To sum up, the role of seals in drilling rigs and rock drills is very important. It can not only keep the medium stable and prevent leakage, but also prevent impurities from entering, reduce friction and wear, and prolong service life. Therefore, when using drilling rigs and rock drills, attention should be paid to the selection and maintenance of seals to ensure their normal operation and performance.
In addition, the seal to prevent leakage also has the following functions:
Improve production efficiency: Leakage will lead to waste of media, resulting in shutdown maintenance and unnecessary losses in the production process. Good sealing can maintain the integrity of the medium, avoid leakage and improve production efficiency.
Environmental protection: Leakage will pollute the environment and cause damage to people and the natural environment. Excellent sealing can effectively prevent leakage, reduce environmental pollution, and meet the requirements of environmental protection.
Protect the safety of workers: The leaked medium may cause injury to operators, maintenance personnel and surrounding people. The function of the seal is to protect the safety of the staff and reduce the risk of work.
Protect equipment and property safety: The leaked medium may cause damage to mechanical equipment and peripheral equipment, and cause fire and other safety accidents. Seals can ensure that the medium will not leak out and protect the safety of mechanical equipment and property.
All in all, preventing leakage is one of the main functions of seals, which can keep the working medium stable, prevent dust and impurities from entering, enhance the wear resistance of mechanical equipment, and prolong the service life. At the same time, good sealing can also improve production efficiency, protect the environment and personnel safety, as well as protect the safety of equipment and property. Therefore, in drilling rigs and rock drilling rigs, the selection and maintenance of seals is very important.
