Current Collector

Current Collector

We have introduced a variety of grades of Current Collector including DSL Crane Current Collector, Gravity Type Current Collector, DSL Carbon Current Collector, and Cast Iron Current Collector Manufacturers in Mumbai, India.

We make current collectors for cranes of all current capacities and other applications requiring sliding electrical contact. Our substance guarantees little sparking and high current transmission. Specialized metallic carbon grades prevent dust generation and maintenance while increasing operating time.

Current collector, often referred to as trolley collectors or pantographs, are critical components of overhead cranes used in a variety of industries. These allow the crane to receive and transport electrical power from overhead wires to the crane's electrical system. Current collector are often composed of a series of spring-loaded contacts or brushes that push on the overhead conductor. To maintain a steady electrical connection and adapt the crane's movement, these connections may move vertically and horizontally. The type of current collector employed is determined by the crane's unique needs, including the needed voltage and current capacity. Single-arm, double-arm, and articulated collectors are popular types of crane current collector.

It is crucial to regularly inspect and maintain current collector to ensure their proper functioning and prevent electrical hazards. Any damage or wear to the brushes or contacts can cause electrical arcing or shorts, which can pose a safety risk. Proper maintenance includes cleaning and lubricating the contacts, checking for wear or damage, and replacing them as necessary. Crane contemporary collectors come in a variety of styles, including single-arm, double-arm, and articulated collector. The collector type that is selected is determined by criteria such as the crane's use, operating environment, and needed current capacity.

Overall, current collector play a vital role in the safe and reliable operation of cranes in a wide range of industries, from manufacturing and construction to ports and shipping.
