Incorrect track tension is one of the top three triggers for early undercarriage wear. If the track is too loose, it may jump off; if overly tight, sprockets, idlers and bushings will wear out much faster. For fleet operators running mixed equipment from 2-tonne mini excavators to 200-tonne mining shovels, understanding tension adjustment is essential.
The correct tension varies by application. For hard rock excavation, a slightly tighter track reduces shoe slippage. For soft ground or mud, a looser track allows the chain to conform to uneven surfaces. Our undercarriage assemblies feature easily reachable adjustment points, so field technicians can carry out tension checks during regular walk-around inspections.
Built with Q345B steel main frames, our undercarriages deliver superior dimensional stability, keeping track tension consistent throughout long service intervals. Backed by CE and ISO 9001 certifications, our chassis systems fully comply with the documentary standards required for international fleet management projects.
