The brands of the Wirtgen Group not only have strong performance and high quality equipment, but also various types of spare parts to help the equipment maintain a good state. Today's [Xiaowei College] will introduce you to the track shoes in the Wirtgen brand equipment crawler. Wirtgen polyurethane track shoes The Wirtgen brand track shoes transmit the traction of the track to the ground and are a special structure designed to ensure smooth milling operations. Compared to harder polyurethane track shoes, the softer rubber track shoes provide extreme traction while also being worn faster. Due to the relatively heavy cold milling equipment, the traction of the polyurethane rubber block can prevent the equipment from being damaged. In addition, the hydraulic system flow distribution valve and the new anti-skid control system (ISC) advance the technology to avoid the falling off of the track chain. The Wirtgen brand Poly Grip original integrated track shoe consists of a steel base plate and a high-wear-resistant polyurethane block that extends the life of the track shoe. The steel substrate of the Wirtgen track shoe is made of tempered, coated boron steel, which guarantees long service life and high traction. The wear characteristics of the track shoes are excellent when encountering sharp edges and corners (milling edges and corners). The track shoes are held together by screws with links of the chain rail. A "chain cover" made of polyurethane or rubber provides the necessary traction. The choice of track shoe size and characteristics is primarily determined by the weight of the equipment and the ground conditions at runtime. As with all screw and nut connections, whether it is a polyurethane-coated Poly Grip integrated track shoe steel substrate or an EPS steel substrate, all track shoes must have sufficient torque to pull. Wirtgen brand equipment torque EPS PLUS quick change track shoe The quick change track shoe is the latest innovation in the Wirtgen original track shoe polyurethane series, the most notable feature of which is the red and yellow color. When the polyurethane sheet is worn, simply remove the screw and remove the track plate from the steel substrate to replace it, simplifying transportation and assembly. The advantages of EPS PLUS quick change track shoes Made of a special polyurethane blend with a 15% increase in material usage, the track shoe has a longer life than the original EPS track shoe. Reinforced locknuts and ideal screw lengths make it easier to replace worn track shoes and reduce maintenance requirements. The track shoe overlaps the bottom plate to prevent damage to the curb. The track shoe is separable from the steel substrate and the nut is built in, which reduces the transport volume and reduces the transport weight. There are no holes in the EPS PLUS track shoe that will not accumulate and condense the milling material. Thereby the ground through which the track shoe passes can be kept flat. Wirtgen EPS PLUS track shoe replacement The use of EPS PLUS track shoes on Wirtgen equipment greatly simplifies the installation of track shoes. The biggest difference between the EPS PLUS track shoe and the Poly Grip integrated track shoe is that the steel plate can be replaced without the replacement of the track plate on the track chain. Only the EPS PLUS polyurethane block needs to be replaced. For Wirtgen EPS PLUS track shoes, special care must be taken to tighten the specified torque to ensure that the track shoes are securely connected to the steel substrate. If this is not the case, refer to the table below. Xiaowei Tip: Safely bonding the special screws can prevent the track plate from being loose again after tightening. Due to the adherent coating on the screw rod, the screw must be tightened directly to the specified torque.
