The Difference between Forging Crane Wheel Forging And Driving Wheel Forging

The difference between forging crane wheel forgings and driving wheel forgings mainly lies in their application, size, carrying capacity and design requirements. Forging crane wheel forgings are usually used in large bridge cranes and gantry cranes, which need to bear larger loads and are larger in size and are designed to require higher strength and durability. The driving wheel forgings are mostly used for small light cranes or driving, they carry relatively small weight, the size is also small, the design of the strength and durability requirements are relatively low. In addition, the two may also differ in the manufacturing process to accommodate different performance needs and cost considerations.

In addition, forging crane wheel forgings and driving wheel forgings may also differ in material selection. Since crane wheel forgings need to withstand greater weight and stress, materials with higher strength and wear resistance are usually selected to ensure their long-term stable operation. The driving wheel forging may use more ordinary materials, because the load it bears is small, and the requirements for material properties are relatively low.

In terms of service life, forging crane wheel forgings are often in a state of high load operation, and their service life may be relatively short, requiring regular inspection and maintenance. The service life of wheel forgings may be relatively long because their operating conditions are relatively mild.
In short, forging crane wheel forgings and driving wheel forgings are different in many aspects, and these differences make them suitable for different crane and driving scenarios. When choosing wheel forgings, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the specific application, load requirements, cost budget and other factors to ensure that the selected forgings can meet the actual needs and have a good cost performance.
