High density tungsten blocks for crane balancing 2023-03-08
The use of counterweights is used as a way of maintaining balance. Their weight is generally calculated according to the strength of the machine itself and must not be too heavy or too light. If it is too heavy, there is a high risk of damage to the strength of the vehicle when lifting the weight; conversely if it is too light, there is a high risk of rollover. In order to make the vehicle more versatile, some large tonnage cranes have removable counterbalance blocks. When lifting small tonnage materials, the crane can be hung with less or no counterbalance blocks. However, it should be noted that when lifting large tonnage goods, the balancing blocks must all be hung, and even overweight devices must be added to prevent accidents from occurring and causing irreparable consequences. This shows the importance of tungsten alloy counterweight blocks.
