The excavator bucket tooth is an important part of the excavator, and it is also a very easily damaged part. How much do you know about the failure of excavator bucket teeth?
Excavator bucket teeth are subject to different degrees of wear and impact under different working conditions, which will cause different degrees and different forms of failure. For example, there are obvious groove-like scratches on the front working surface of the excavator bucket teeth, and the tooth tip has a certain degree of plastic deformation.
The excavator bucket teeth are made of low-alloy wear-resistant steel, which is more suitable for bucket teeth. However, due to the lack of heat treatment, the structure of the bucket teeth of the excavator is uneven, the inserts do not play a role, and the overall wear resistance of the bucket teeth is poor, resulting in early failure.
It is recommended that the castings be properly normalized after casting to improve the structure and performance and increase the service life of the bucket teeth of the excavator. Castings undergo reasonable heat treatment, and under the same working conditions, the service life of excavator bucket teeth can be increased by more than 2 times.
