Preventative maintenance
is absolutely critical with stokers, especially when so much is
dependent on their continuous operation. Having a specialized
company like Seneca Steel to come in for regular inspections will
keep you abreast of what is happening within that stoker. A
detailed report on the findings is provided and a copy is provided
to your stoker representative. The stoker rep will generally
give a report as well. These regular reports will help you
to make informed decisions to keep the plant operating smoothly.
Most of the wear we find in stokers is in the bearings. With
the combination of intense heat, constant wear, and sometimes
lack of proper lubrication or allowing the stoker to get too hot,
they can damage the bars.
Not only will we locate
and report on any damage, but we will also make maintenance recommendations
if we see any areas that may need extra attention. There
is no reason that you should have any uncertainty regarding the
condition of your stoker. Give us a call at 800-853-8225.
