How to quality the bucket teeth

In the construction machinery industry, bucket tooth quality inspection is a crucial link to ensure equipment reliability and extend service life. It requires a systematic assessment by integrating multiple inspection items and methods

I. Core Quality Inspection Items and Methods

Mechanical property testing ‌

Hardness testing ‌ : Measure the surface and internal hardness, and evaluate the wear-resistant basic performance, such as testing the hardness value of the tooth surface with a rockwell hardness tester.

Impact toughness testing ‌ : Simulate impact loads, test fracture resistance, and prevent failure when digging hard materials.

Tensile strength and flexural strength testing ‌ : verify the tensile capacity and structural stability of the material, and simulate actual bending force conditions.

Abrasion resistance test ‌

Wear quantity detection ‌ : simulate the operation through a wear testing machine, record the wear quantity to assess the service life.

Wear resistance comparison test ‌ : Compare the wear resistance differences of bucket teeth made of different materials to provide a basis for selection.

Analysis of tip wear pattern ‌ : Observe the wear pattern judgment mechanism and optimize the design.

Connection performance testing ‌

Fit accuracy inspection ‌ : Check the clearance and dimensional tolerance between the bucket teeth and the tooth seat to ensure a firm installation.

Connection strength testing ‌ : Test the shear strength of the pin shaft or the fastening strength of the bolt to ensure the load-bearing capacity.

Anti-drop performance testing ‌ : Simulate jolting conditions to assess the risk of bucket teeth dropping during intense operations.

Routine test item ‌

Visual and dimensional inspection ‌ : Observe cracks, pores and other defects visually or with a low-power magnifying glass, and measure dimensional tolerances with measuring tools.

Surface roughness inspection ‌ : use a roughness meter to evaluate machining accuracy.

Material performance verification ‌ : the composition is detected by a spectrometer to ensure material consistency.

Ii. Dynamic Monitoring and Technology Application

The real-time bucket tooth recognition system can capture the position of the bucket through multi-frame image models, automatically detect the degree of detachment or wear and provide early warnings, reducing the risk of abnormal downtime.

Iii. Standards and Implementation Basis

Quality inspection follows national standards such as GB/T 228.1 (Test Methods for Mechanical Properties) and GB/T 230.1 (Test Methods for Hardness) to ensure the reliability and traceability of the results. When maintaining, pay attention to the optimized reuse of limit washers to reduce costs.
