The C-level maintenance of Unit 1 has fully entered the critical phase. With strong support from the company leadership, the innovative project of upgrading the boiler furnace lifting platform has been successfully completed and has achieved significant results in its initial application. The newly upgraded lifting platform can safely deliver personnel and tools directly to the screen-type superheater (screen superheater) area, fundamentally changing the previous operational mode that required extensive scaffolding for maintenance in this area, marking a new phase of efficient and safe internal maintenance processes for the boiler.
The screen superheater is located directly above the furnace, with a height of nearly 70 meters, and its complex structure has been a challenge in previous boiler maintenance work. In the past, inspecting the screen superheater required a significant amount of time and manpower to set up and dismantle large scaffolding, which not only prolonged the operational cycle and increased labor intensity but also posed considerable safety risks. The core breakthrough of this upgrade lies in the new lifting platform, which effectively extends the operational coverage and precisely addresses the “last mile” challenge of reaching the screen superheater area. During maintenance, technicians can efficiently and smoothly transport personnel and tools to the designated work points using the new platform, ensuring a safe and smooth process.
The implementation of this technological innovation eliminates the need for scaffolding in the screen superheater area, thereby removing the risks associated with high-altitude work during the setup and dismantling of scaffolding. The work platform is more stable, and safety protection is more reliable. It saves the lengthy construction period for scaffolding setup and dismantling, allowing maintenance personnel to quickly access the core work area, significantly shortening the maintenance time for critical paths. Additionally, it reduces the use, transportation, and rental costs of scaffolding materials, lowering labor consumption and yielding significant overall economic benefits.
The successful transformation and precise application of the boiler lifting platform is an important step for the company towards intelligent and refined maintenance. It not only provides strong support for the smooth progress of this C-level maintenance but also lays a solid hardware foundation for the long-term safe and economical operation of the boiler in the future. Moving forward, the boiler specialists will summarize the experience from this application, further optimize operational procedures, and enhance the role of new technologies in ensuring safe production and improving work efficiency, thereby strengthening the technical support for the company’s high-quality development!
