InterSystems Bucket Elevator Pin Won't Come Out – Line Down
Seized pins are blocking restart on your InterSystems bucket elevator right now.
Why Pins Seize or Stick
Downtime is crushing production while the chain refuses to move. Torch methods create serious safety hazards in tight spaces. Corrosion, wear, and contamination lock pins tight, stopping presses and stalling repairs.
Why This Happens
Chain pins seize when corrosion builds up, wear widens clearances for debris pack-out, and heavy load cycling plus contamination create binding. This turns routine pin removal into a major failure point. The result is extended shutdowns and increased repair risk.
