Abstract

The article considers the questions of application of nondestructive methods control of reducers of conveyor belts as a means of transport. Particular attention is paid to such types of diagnostics of technical condition as thermal control and analysis of the state of lubricants. The urgency of carrying out types of nondestructive testing presented in the article is determined by the increase of energy efficiency of transport systems of coal and mining enterprises, in particular, reducers of belt conveyors. Periodic in-depth spectral-emission diagnostics and monitoring of a temperature mode of operation oil in the operation of the control equipment and its technical condition and prevent the MTBF allows the monitoring of the actual technical condition of the gearbox of a belt conveyor. In turn, the thermal imaging diagnostics reveals defects at the earliest stage of their formation and development, which allows planning the volumes and terms of equipment repair. Presents diagnostics of the technical condition will allow monitoring in time the technical condition of the equipment and avoiding its premature failure. Thereby it will increase the energy efficiency of both the transport system and the enterprise as a whole, and also avoid unreasonable increases in operating and maintenance costs.

Highlights

  • In the Russian Federation, as in many other developed countries, transport is one of the largest sectors of the economy, and an important part of the production infrastructure

  • The transport system connects all regions of the country, which is a necessary condition of its territorial completeness

  • The wide application of transport communications across the country and across the enterprise makes us think about energy efficiency in the transport system as a whole in view of annual growth of energy consumption, negative impact on the environment and emissions of harmful substances, unjustified increase of costs of operation and maintenance of the equipment [1]

Summary

Introduction

In the Russian Federation, as in many other developed countries, transport is one of the largest sectors of the economy, and an important part of the production infrastructure. One of the most common means of moving bulk materials is continuous transport system, including belt conveyors. Widespread they last received in coal and mining industry as an intermediate and main conveyor systems high performance, providing transportation of goods over long distances. The problem of increasing energy efficiency and achieving energy savings is a priority for the country's economy in general and for the mining sector . One of the methods of diagnosing the technical condition of the transport unit (e.g. a belt conveyor or dump truck) as a means of transport is a method of nondestructive testing [5]. One of the important elements of nondestructive control is a thermal control and analysis of lubricant condition
