Precautions for maintenance of aluminum cutting machine

The maintenance of aluminum cutting machines is an important part of ensuring their long-term stable operation and extending their service life. The following are the precautions for maintaining the aluminum cutting machine:

1、 Daily maintenance

Cleaning work

After work or before changing shifts, aluminum shavings and dust on the aluminum cutting machine should be cleaned in a timely manner to prevent them from entering the interior of the machine and affecting its operation.

Keeping the workbench clean helps ensure the accuracy of sawing.

Check the oil cup

Check the lubricating oil in the oil cup every day to ensure that it is sufficient. Generally, it should be kept at around 70% full to ensure that all lubrication parts are adequately lubricated.

Check if the pressure of the lubricating oil is maintained between 6-7kg, as excessive or insufficient pressure may damage the pneumatic components.

Check the cutting oil

The proportion of cutting oil (such as CPC-R32 or saponification oil) should be appropriate and not too thin to avoid rusting or jamming due to excessive moisture.

Check the remaining amount of cutting oil daily and replenish it promptly if it is insufficient.

Check the air duct

Check the air ducts daily for damage, and replace them promptly if any are found to prevent equipment from malfunctioning due to water leakage.

Check the switch power supply

The fuse switch should be kept in the closed state without using power to ensure the safety of the machine and personnel.

2、 Regular maintenance

Add oil and lubricate

Check and lubricate the matching parts of the support rod and the pressing frame ring, the front and rear axles of the connecting rod frame, the cylinder joints, and the matching parts of the roller at both ends of the feeding and discharging process every week to prevent shutdown caused by jamming.

Check the belt

Regularly check the tightness and wear of the belt every week to ensure that the belt is parallel and the surface pressure is moderate.

Check the hydraulic system

For aluminum cutting machines using hydraulic systems, the oil quantity and quality of the hydraulic oil should be regularly checked. If it is insufficient, it should be added in a timely manner, and if the oil quality is contaminated, it should be replaced in a timely manner.

Cleaning and replacement

Regularly clean the micro lubrication device, check the amount of aluminum alloy cutting fluid and whether there are aluminum chips blocking the measuring room, and replace and clean it in a timely manner.

The filter element of the air-water separator should be cleaned every three months, and attention should be paid to observing that the water storage cup should drain automatically and normally.

Check the air pressure system

Regularly check whether the pressure of the pneumatic system is stable and whether the pneumatic components are operating normally. If there is a malfunction, it should be replaced in a timely manner.

3、 Other precautions

Use appropriate cutting oil

The selection of cutting oil should be determined based on the material and processing requirements of the aluminum material to ensure processing quality and equipment lifespan.

Avoid overloading during use

When using an aluminum cutting machine, overloading should be avoided to avoid damaging the machine or affecting processing accuracy.

Professional training

Operators should receive professional training to understand the performance, operation methods, and maintenance requirements of the aluminum cutting machine, in order to ensure the safe operation of the equipment.

Regular maintenance records

Establish regular maintenance records for the aluminum cutting machine, recording the time, content, and results of each maintenance to promptly identify and resolve potential issues.

In summary, the maintenance of the aluminum cutting machine needs to start from daily cleaning, checking the oil cup, cutting oil, air duct, switch power supply, etc., and combined with regular oiling and lubrication, checking the belt, hydraulic system, pneumatic system and other measures to ensure the long-term stable operation of the equipment. At the same time, operators should receive professional training and follow operating procedures to ensure safety.
