The reasons for the shortened service life of chain hoists may include the following:

Usage environment:

If the chain electric hoist is exposed to harsh environments such as high temperature, high humidity, and strong corrosion for a long time, it will cause accelerated wear or corrosion of its components such as chains, gears, bearings, etc., thereby shortening its service life.

Wet and corrosive environments may cause problems such as rusting, loose fixation, and chain shrinkage, further affecting its performance and lifespan.

Usage frequency and load:

Frequent use and high load operation can lead to increased wear and tear on the components of chain electric hoists, especially the chain and transmission components. Long term high load work may exceed its design limit, leading to chain breakage or other component damage.

Excessive or overloaded use may lead to premature wear or damage of equipment components, shortening their service life.

Material selection:

Chain electric hoists made of different materials have differences in wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and other aspects. For example, the service life of ordinary low-carbon steel chains is relatively short, while the service life of alloy steel chains and stainless steel chains is relatively long.

Choosing unsuitable materials may make the equipment more susceptible to damage in specific environments and shorten its service life.

Maintenance and upkeep:

The maintenance and upkeep of chain electric hoists are crucial to their service life. If the equipment is not maintained and serviced in a timely manner, such as insufficient lubrication, incomplete cleaning, etc., it will lead to increased wear and tear of its components, thereby shortening its service life.

Lack of daily maintenance or improper maintenance may lead to a decrease in equipment performance and even malfunctions, affecting its service life.

Skills of operation and maintenance personnel:

The skill level of operators and maintenance personnel also has a certain impact on the service life of chain electric hoists. Improper operation or maintenance may lead to equipment damage or malfunction.

Improper operating methods, such as sudden braking and acceleration, may cause impact and wear on the equipment, affecting its service life.

Equipment design and manufacturing quality:

The design and manufacturing quality of equipment are also important factors affecting its service life. If the equipment design is unreasonable or the manufacturing quality does not meet the standards, it may cause various problems during use and shorten its service life.
