Analysis of Factors Affecting the Performance of Construction Machinery

The technical proficiency of the operators

With the continuous development of science and technology and the wide application of new technologies, new materials and new processes, the types of construction machinery have become more complete, their structures more complex, and the requirements for construction machinery operators have also been raised to a new level. Operators not only need to understand the structural composition, principle, performance of construction machinery and master operation skills, but also possess the ability to quickly diagnose and repair faults of construction machinery. The good technical proficiency of operators can significantly increase the utilization rate and integrity rate of construction machinery, prevent damage to construction machinery caused by human factors, shorten the maintenance time and cycle of construction machinery, and create good economic benefits for enterprises.

2. Moral cultivation of operators

The working attitude, enthusiasm and sense of responsibility of the operators have a significant impact on the performance of construction machinery. A qualified operator should have a strong sense of responsibility and professional honor, be able to position themselves correctly, love their job, obey the management and assignment of the leaders, and strictly abide by all the rules and regulations of the company. Strictly implement the safety operation procedures for construction machinery, ensure safe production, and successfully complete all tasks assigned by the leadership. Therefore, it is necessary to enhance the quality education and training of operators, boost their work enthusiasm and sense of responsibility, constantly identify existing problems and shortcomings and have the courage to correct them. Only in this way can the work enthusiasm and initiative of operators be more effectively improved, enabling them to better engage in their work and increase the utilization rate and integrity of engineering machinery. Achieve good economic benefits.

Maintenance and upkeep of construction machinery

The quality of maintenance and upkeep for construction machinery is the prerequisite and foundation for its operation. During the long-term use of construction machinery, the internal components wear out, the clearance increases, the fit changes, the static and dynamic balance that construction machinery should have is disrupted, and the working stability, reliability and efficiency of the machinery all decline significantly. It may even cause permanent damage to certain assemblies and components. All enterprises should establish an effective management mechanism, strengthen the management of maintenance and upkeep of construction machinery, strictly implement all rules and regulations, and based on the usage and integrity of construction machinery in recent years, formulate annual maintenance plans, quarterly maintenance plans and monthly maintenance plans for construction machinery. There should be dedicated personnel responsible for and inspection. Carry out maintenance and upkeep of construction machinery on time and at the right level, conduct regular checks on the maintenance and upkeep conditions, and carefully keep records of the maintenance and upkeep of construction machinery.

4. Logistical support and material supply

As most construction sites of highways and railways are far from cities and towns, issues such as the supply of materials for equipment and the purchase of daily necessities can affect the use of construction machinery. Enterprise leaders and managers should frequently go to the front line of work, care about the lives of workers, conduct extensive exchanges and communication, and boost the morale and enthusiasm of the majority of employees. Enhance the work enthusiasm and efficiency of the operators. The materials and accessories of construction machinery should be well guaranteed both in terms of quality and quantity to avoid equipment shutdown or abnormal operation of the equipment, damage to certain assemblies and components due to factors such as substandard material quality, inconsistent dimensions and insufficient quantity, which may lead to more serious consequences and unnecessary economic losses.

The working site of construction machinery

Many large-scale modern construction machinery, such as asphalt mixing equipment, stabilized soil mixing equipment, and combined crushers, are of considerable scale, with each part weighing from tens to hundreds of tons. Therefore, the requirements for the working site are relatively strict. The selection of the working site should fully take into account the possible impact of wind direction, rivers and surrounding buildings on the equipment. Moreover, the site should be as flat and dense as possible to avoid the equipment tilting and foundation collapse caused by heavy weight and severe vibration during the use of construction machinery, which would result in unnecessary rework waste and economic losses.

The natural environment of the location where it is situated

Factors such as extreme heat, severe cold, rain and snow, wind force and altitude in the natural environment can all have a significant impact on the normal operation of construction machinery. When construction machinery is used in extremely hot or cold conditions, necessary measures should be taken to protect the machinery, and some parameters of the equipment should be adjusted as necessary according to the actual situation. The strength of wind has a significant impact on the normal operation of construction machinery. When the wind is too strong, the material conveying belt of the equipment will deviate. In severe cases, the material conveying belt may be torn or the material conveying belt frame may tilt or collapse.

Energy devices for construction machinery and equipment

As the power of current large-scale highway construction machinery ranges from hundreds of kilowatts to several hundred kilowatts, there are higher requirements for the safety, stability and economy of the energy devices that provide power for construction machinery. Before starting the construction machinery, systematic maintenance, upkeep and inspection of the energy devices should be carried out. Conduct a comprehensive inspection of the generator's output power, operational stability and safety to provide strong power support for the normal operation of the equipment.

There are many factors that affect the performance of construction machinery. Only by mastering all the factors that influence the performance of highway construction machinery can we make more thorough preparations in the actual construction process based on these factors that affect the performance of the equipment, improve the utilization rate of construction machinery, reduce production costs, and achieve greater economic benefits.
