Application of flooring products in industry Automatic translate

When working on projects for industrial enterprises, designers take into account the need for special structures to service bulky equipment or hard-to-reach areas due to the specifics of production. These are service areas where personnel can move along mechanisms, stairs along which one can climb or descend to another level, transitions from one place to another.

Such platforms and stairs are made of lattice flooring. First, a steel frame is made, installed in place, then covered with grating . The material for the flooring can be steel, galvanized steel, fiberglass.

Advantages of gratings

The choice of flooring material is made based on:

• from the purpose of the site;
• load magnitude;
• aggressiveness of the environment;
• operational features;
• economic factor.

Below we discuss the advantages of different materials when assembling service structures from them in industry.

Steel

Metal grating is the most suitable material for the manufacture of service platforms and stairs to them. The choice of metal flooring is determined by such characteristics as:

• high strength;
• ease;
• ease of installation;
• reliability of fastening.

Metal flooring is great for organizing outdoor and indoor areas. The cellular structure promotes excellent adhesion of the surface of the platform to shoes, does not retain dust, dirt, water, and perfectly withstands low temperatures.

Cink Steel

Galvanized steel decking has all the benefits of steel decking and is more resistant to corrosion.

Fiberglass

Fiberglass flooring as a maintenance platform is simply necessary when there are aggressive substances or high humidity in the environment. This can be production using acids, alkalis, or hot water. In such conditions, metal structures quickly collapse, so it is more advisable to use fiberglass decking and stairs.

Fiberglass:

• is highly resistant to chemicals and does not corrode;
• withstands a wide range of temperatures (from – 100 to +180 ° C);
• excellent dielectric;
• non-magnetic;
• does not spark;
• much lighter than steel structures with the same strength;
• UV resistant;
• does not slip;
• has self-extinguishing properties;
• can last 30 - 40 years.

It is thanks to these qualities that fiberglass is in demand in the chemical industry, in enterprises using high-precision electronics and others.

Metal fencing

Regardless of the material of the platforms, the fences for them are made of metal. They are easy to install, ensure reliable movement on stairs and landings, and go well with any floor covering. Long service life and ease of use determine the use of metal fences.

Conclusion

The use of gratings to construct service areas is necessary to organize the efficient operation of equipment, so they are part of the technological process.
