What is the bottom plate of the excavator?

In the field of construction machinery, the bottom plate of the excavator is a key component, which directly affects the stability and work efficiency of the equipment. This article will provide you with a comprehensive analysis of the relevant knowledge of the excavator floor from the perspectives of definition, function, material, frequently asked questions and market data, and also attaches relevant analysis of hot topics in the past 10 days.

1. Definition and function of excavator bottom plate

What is the bottom plate of the excavator?

The excavator base plate (also called track shoe) is the core component of the excavator track system. It is located at the bottom of the track link and directly contacts the ground. Its main functions include:

1. Disperse mechanical weight and reduce ground pressure

2. Provide grip and prevent slipping

3. Protect the internal structure of the track from wear

2. Material and type of excavator bottom plate

typeMaterialApplicable scenariosLifespan (hours)
Standard typeMn13 high manganese steelOrdinary earthwork work2000-3000
EnhancedAlloy steel + rubber padMine crushing operations1500-2000
Wetland typeWide steel plateswamps, muddy areas1800-2500
Rubber typeSteel core + rubber wrappingurban road construction1000-1500

3. Hot topics in the construction machinery industry in the past 10 days

4. Analysis of common problems with excavator bottom plates

1.Abnormal wear and tear:This is usually caused by sharp objects on the working floor or substandard floor material. The thickness of the floor needs to be checked regularly (it is recommended not to be less than 60% of the original thickness).

2.Loose connections:Insufficient pre-tightening force of bolts may cause the base plate to fall off. They should be tightened regularly according to the manufacturer's standard torque.

3.Rubber pad aging:Ultraviolet radiation and oil pollution will accelerate the aging of rubber. It is recommended that urban work equipment be inspected every 500 hours.

5. Excavator base plate market data in 2023

parameterDomestic market sizeannual growth rateMain brands
original parts1.8 billion yuan5.2%Komatsu, Caterpillar
Sub-factory parts2.7 billion yuan12.7%XCMG, Lingong
remanufactured parts900 million yuan23.5%Regional repair shops

6. Purchase suggestions

1. Choose the appropriate type according to the working conditions. Reinforced bottom plates are recommended for mining operations.

2. Check whether there are quality certification marks such as ISO9001

3. Compare the cost performance of original parts and auxiliary parts. Generally, the price of auxiliary parts is 30-50% lower.

4. Pay attention to recent industry exhibition information (such as the Shanghai Construction Machinery Exhibition in September) to obtain the latest product trends

7. Technology development trends

1.Composite material applications:Carbon fiber + metal hybrid blade can reduce weight by more than 20%

2.Intelligent monitoring:Some high-end models are equipped with base plate wear sensors

3.Environmental requirements:The EU will implement new heavy metal content standards in 2024

From the above analysis, it can be seen that although the excavator bottom plate is a small part, it is of great importance. It is recommended that users combine recent industry hot spots and their own needs to formulate scientific purchasing and maintenance strategies.
