The hydraulic hammer is an attachment. In fact, it is a working replaceable element that is used by hydraulic machines for construction, for example, loaders, excavators and others. They are used to destroy fundamental structures and dilapidated buildings. They are also needed to bury piles in the ground and break up solid layers of material. Many organizations and firms believe that renting a hydraulic hammer is beneficial in all respects.
Hammer types
A variety of construction tasks are solved using a machine equipped with a hydraulic hammer. There are destroyers and pile drivers - these are two types, separated by functionality. The first type is assigned a purpose to destroy concrete structures, old buildings, crush hard rocks, break up road surfaces, and loosen frozen soil. The second type is defined for use mainly in construction. If the specificity of the rock does not allow the use of vibrators, then with the help of the first type, the support piles are immersed in the ground. There is also a third type of hydraulic breakers - forging. Forging and stamping works are carried out using them. In addition, there is a division by power and size: heavy, medium and light. It is quite natural that for a significant power of the hydraulic hammer, a significant massiveness of the base machine is also required.
Performance
There is a direct relationship between performance and impact energy and frequency. The value will be greater if the material to be broken is stronger. In this case, it is the impact energy that plays a role. It breaks up the processed material very quickly.
If such types of work are carried out from time to time, then hydraulic hammer services become more justified than purchasing.
How it works
The hydraulic hammer has the most important working body, which is called the striker. The principle of operation of a hydraulic hammer is characterized by the implementation of three functions: acceleration, braking and impact.
The acceleration force is interconnected with the movement of the striker. If its stroke is not long, then much more effort is needed to accelerate, and also the frequency of impacts. The hammer, which is attached to the machine, is powered by its hydraulic system. With the help of the hydraulic pump of the machine, liquid is continuously supplied to the cylinders of the hammer. The efficiency in heavy hydraulic hammers is enhanced by the installation of additional accumulators to accumulate the working fluid at a low speed of the striker and then give it away during acceleration. The specific shape and size of the hydraulic hammer is selected in accordance with the type of task.
