Abstract

In a dual-drum shearer, the drum's height is mainly adjusted by a height-adjustment hydraulic system. However, the hydraulic system is prone to failures, since oil is likely to leak induced by the abrasions of key parts. In the present work, based on the analysis of system failures and the requirements on material performances, the surface modification methods used for the key parts in height-adjustment hydraulic system were proposed. Specifically, the TiN film was deposited on the surface of the oil distribution disk, the diamond-like carbon (DLC) film was deposited on the surface of the cylinder by means of ion implantation and the ion cladding was performed on the surface of the plunger piston. Compared with the original base material, the material after processed is significantly enhanced in terms of surface performances. The results also indicate that, after modified, the parts' surface performances were greatly improved and now can satisfy the demands under harsh operating conditions. Accordingly, the failure rate of the hydraulic system can be reduced and the service period of the shearer can be prolonged.
