The name of the counterweight mold comes from its unique shape, which is due to the fact that concrete counterweights usually have a U-shaped structure. This structural style makes the counterweight have a large bearing capacity and stability, and is widely used in various projects. When manufacturing concrete counterweights, molds are needed to hold the concrete in place and form the desired shape. Since the wall thickness of the counterweight is usually between 15 cm and 20 cm, and the length consideration is set to the standard of 50 to 100 cm, the manufacture and processing of the mold is also relatively complex.
Due to the large weight of the counterweight, it needs to rely on forklifts, cranes and other mechanical equipment for handling and installation. Therefore, these factors also need to be taken into account in the design and manufacture of molds to ensure that the manufactured counterweights can be easily handled and installed. According to the processing conditions of different saddle counterweight molds, the inner and outer molds of the molds usually appear in the form of screws or S hooks. These connections ensure the stability and durability of the mould and facilitate the demoulding and handling of the counterweights.
In addition, the weight of each set of molds will also change with the change of size. Therefore, when designing and manufacturing molds, accurate calculations and designs are required according to specific needs and engineering requirements to ensure the stability and practicability of the molds. The design and manufacture of counterweight molds requires consideration of several factors, including shape, size, weight, handling, and installation. Only by considering these factors can we manufacture high-quality, high-efficiency counterweight molds.
