What is the impact of sheave friction?
The friction in sheaves will build up through duration of the stacker operation especially in the dusty operating environment. Poor maintenance could also increase the rate of friction build ups. The friction from the sheave will affect the performance of the stacker during rising and lowering operation of the boom. The impact on performance of stacker includes the escalation of winch pull forces and the increase of cable tension as well as boom stresses.
