The counterweight system provides counterbalancing force to prevent the machine from tipping during lifting and positioning of heavy pipes. It ensures stability when the boom is extended or when handling loads at various angles.
Counterweight blocks are typically made of cast iron, steel, or concrete. The structural steel grades for the blocks are Q235 to Q345, as per GB/T 700.
Key parameters include rated load capacity (5–50 t), counterweight mass (1–20 t), positioning accuracy (±0.5 mm), operating temperature (-20–60°C), operating pressure (1.0–1.6 MPa), hydraulic flow rate (10–40 L/min), power supply (24 V DC ±10%), ingress protection (IP54–IP65), material grade (Q235–Q345), surface treatment (Sa2.5–Sa3), weight (500–2000 kg), and dimensions. Always confirm these values with the manufacturer for your specific model.
The system uses heavy masses to create a moment opposite to the load moment. By adjusting the mass and position of the counterweights, the center of gravity is kept within the stability envelope, preventing tipping.
