3. On-Site Fault Repair Case

Case: JC70DB Drawworks Gearbox Wear Due to Lubrication Neglect

Scenario: During 800m drilling, the JC70DB’s gearbox emitted abnormal noise and overheated. Root Cause: Failed to change lubricating oil per schedule, causing gear wear (violating API 5GL standards). Repair: Replaced 42CrMo gears, flushed the gearbox, and refilled with API 5GL oil. Prevention: Set oil change reminders and test oil viscosity monthly.

4. FAQ

Question

Answer

How to select the right wire rope for Bomco JC series drawworks?

Match rope diameter to each model’s specification (29~48mm) and use API 9A galvanized steel rope. Ensure breaking strength exceeds 5x max. fast-line pull to avoid overload failure.

What maintenance is required for the regenerating auxiliary brake?

Inspect brake pads weekly, replace hydraulic fluid every 500 hours (use ISO VG 46 oil), and clean brake cooling systems to prevent overheating. Comply with API 7K brake maintenance protocols.
