Case of bulk supply of serpentine spring couplings by Shandong Port Group

Heavy port machinery transmission solutions: Single supply over 1,000 pieces; Impact-resistant and corrosion-resistant

Case Overview

The cooperative client, Shandong Port Group Co., LTD., supplies 1,500 pieces of serpentine spring couplings (anti-corrosion and reinforced type) (to be delivered in three batches). The application scenarios include port cranes, belt conveyors, and stacker-reclaimers

Project background and customer requirements

As an important comprehensive port operator in the north, Shandong Port Group has initiated a large-scale upgrading and transformation project of loading and unloading equipment to enhance the cargo handling capacity of major port areas such as Qingdao Port and Rizhao Port. As a key component of the transmission system of port machinery, the serpentine spring coupling needs to adapt to special working conditions such as high-frequency start-stop and salt spray corrosion.

  • Batch demand: 1,500 pieces of serpentine spring couplings, all delivered within three months

  • Environmental adaptability: It needs to withstand salt spray corrosion (in compliance with GB/T 10125-2021 standard), with a working temperature range of -10℃ to 60℃

  • Performance parameters: Torque transmission range 500-5000N·m, axial compensation ±5mm, radial compensation 0.5mm

  • Safety standards: Comply with the Safety Regulations for Port Machinery (JT/T 399-2019), and have a service life of no less than 8,000 hours

Customized solutions

1. Anti-corrosion structure optimization

The coil spring is made of 316 stainless steel, and the shell surface is treated with double-layer electrophoresis and fluorocarbon spraying. The salt spray test can last for more than 1000 hours. In response to the humid environment of the port, the sealing structure is optimized to prevent water vapor from invading the internal components.

2. Batch production control

Establish a professional production line and adopt automated spring forming equipment to ensure the consistency of serpentine springs. Establish a batch traceability system, with a unique identification attached to each product. Implement the "three-inspection system" (self-inspection, mutual inspection, and dedicated inspection), and ensure 100% detection of key parameters.

3. Phased delivery plan

In the first month, 500 pieces will be delivered for the pilot installation at Qingdao Port. In the second month, 500 pieces will be delivered to adapt to the equipment at Rizhao Port. In the last month, the remaining 500 pieces will be delivered. We will provide on-site installation guidance and maintenance training simultaneously to ensure that the equipment can be put into use quickly.

Project outcome

100% on-time delivery rate, 99.7% quality inspection pass rate, 40% maintenance cost reduction

All 1,500 pieces of serpentine spring couplings have been installed in the equipment of various port areas of Shandong Port Group. After 12 months of actual operation verification, the products have demonstrated excellent corrosion resistance and impact resistance. The equipment failure rate has decreased by 65%, and the maintenance cycle has been extended to more than twice that of the original products, significantly improving the efficiency of port loading and unloading.

Customer review

The serpentine spring couplings purchased this time have performed outstandingly in terms of batch supply capacity and adaptability to Marine environments. All 1,500 pieces of products were delivered on schedule and with stable quality. In high salt spray and high-frequency operation environments, the couplings operate reliably, effectively reducing our equipment maintenance costs and downtime. We are a trustworthy partner.
