โซ่ยกแบบกําหนดเอง

Lifting chains find application in a wide range of industries and sectors that involve material handling and lifting operations. They are commonly used in construction sites for lifting heavy equipment, building materials, and structural components. Lifting chains are valuable in manufacturing facilities for hoisting machinery, engines, or heavy parts. They are also employed in the transportation and logistics industry for cargo handling and securing loads on trucks, cranes, or ships. Additionally, โซ่ยก are used in the mining, oil and gas, and marine sectors for various lifting and rigging tasks.

There are different types of โซ่ยก available, designed to suit specific load requirements and lifting applications. Grade 80 chains are commonly used for general lifting purposes, offering a good balance between strength and affordability. Grade 100 chains provide higher strength and load-bearing capacity, making them suitable for heavy-duty lifting tasks. Additionally, stainless steel chains are available for applications that require corrosion resistance. The choice of ยกโซ่ depends on factors such as load weight, working conditions, and safety regulations.

One of the safety measures implemented was to place chain in Grades based on the ultimate breaking strength of that chain. This number is what we see today G30, G43, G70, G80 & G100 and the common chain grades. The number after each letter is N/mm2. For example, G80 means that the maximum stress on the chain at ultimate strength is 800 newtons per millimeter squared.

The safety measure was identifying which types of chain are appropriate and strong enough for overhead lifting. Anytime we move or lift a load it is dangerous. Moving a load along the ground has the advantage that the ground is supporting the load. We have to overcome the coefficient of friction to move the load. The chain’s working load limit does not have to match the weight of the load. It needs to be able to handle the tension applied, which is based on the surface that it is being moved over plus some fraction of the weight of the load. This can be calculated using formulas.

If we lift that same load off the ground, we now have to overcome gravity. The chain’s working load limit will have to be of sufficient strength to support the weight of the load plus any additional forces imposed by angles and hitch type(s) used.
