Consequences of Worn Track Pins and Bushings
Worn track pins and bushings can greatly impact machinery performance. When these components become loose, misalignment occurs, leading to uneven wear on other parts. This misalignment can cause erratic machine movement, jeopardizing both safety and efficiency. So, what are the specific consequences? Increased Wear and Tear Worn pins and bushings put extra strain on the entire track system. For instance, the track link experiences heightened stress, which can shorten its lifespan. This added pressure also affects the sprockets and rollers, leading...
