Replacement method of old and new wire saw

Mar 04, 2022

wire saw


In mining sawing operations, the wire rope in use must be replaced with the old wire rope when the cutting face is in the final stage. This is because in the last stage of cutting, especially the last stage of horizontal plane cutting, the connection area between the ore body and the separation body is relatively small, and the steel inserted between the horizontal planes alone is not enough to support the separation body, and it is difficult to ensure that the separation does not occur. Accident in which the separation body collapsed, causing the wire rope to be crushed in the saw seam and scrapped. Especially in ore bodies with relatively developed fractures, local slumps of rocks in the separated bodies often occur. Even if it is vertical cutting or block trimming cutting, the wire rope may be pressed in the saw seam and scrapped due to the sideslip and dumping of the separator. If a new wire rope or a wire rope with a certain life is used to see the last connection surface, encountering such an accident will make the whole or most of the wire rope scrapped, resulting in unnecessary economic losses. Therefore, in the final cutting stage, even in such an accident, the economic loss caused by the use of the wire rope that is about to be scrapped is small or limited. Depending on the situation, the timing of replacement is generally during horizontal sawing. When the distance between the wire rope entering and leaving the saw seam is reduced to 1.5-2.5m, replace the wire rope in use with a nearly scrapped wire rope and continue mining. The separation and cutting of the last connecting surface of the body and the separation body. This same old rope-for-new rope operation is also required in the final stages of cutting vertical planes or disintegrating and reshaping cutting. If the position of the guide wheel is properly installed, the old rope can even directly cut the seam through, leaving no connection part, making the section smooth, avoid the final connection part separation to avoid depression, the other side of the bulge, affecting the square of waste material.
