Routine maintenance and inspection process of plastic extrusion machine

As a manufacturer of pipe, tubing, insulation, or any other plastic compounding product, you probably already know what an extrusion machine is. Still, for those who don't, a plastic extrusion machine is, in short, a "high-volume manufacturing process" in which the raw plastic is melted and formed into a continuous profile. " Plastic extrusion machinery helps speed up the workflow and volume. It's also beneficial for ensuring the consistency of your products, which meet your specifications every time. It is a commonly used machine for making plastic housings for wires, cables, and cords.

We know that industrial production machinery needs high-intensity work every day. If we want the equipment can have a long working life, daily maintenance is essential, this article, plastic extrusion machine manufacturer Zhaohong will share with you the daily maintenance inspection process of plastic extrusion machines. Let's take a look.

1. Check if all standard parts are tightened.

2. Check if there is enough grease or grease in each lubrication point.

3. For the oil pool or reducer, clean it and check if there is dirt, metal chips, etc. falling into the pool or box, and then introduce them into the pool or box according to the specified grease type or total amount.

4. When the transmission of a plastic extrusion machine uses a gasoline pump for forced lubrication, check whether the rotating orientation of the gasoline pump meets the requirements and whether the oil working pressure and circulation system are good.

5. Check whether the rotation direction of the primary motor and the mechanical pump motor is appropriate.

6. Check whether the anxiety degree of each V-belt is consistent.

7. Check whether the adjustment nut of the clutch is suitable and whether the opening and closing of the clutch and its control are convenient. If the pneumatic clutch is used, check whether the standard air pressure of the pneumatic valve, the air supply, and the standard air pressure according to the release pressure of the regulator meets the requirements.

8. Check whether the water pipe, air valve, and vacuum system are well sealed and whether the gate valve is flexible and reliable.

9. Check whether all mechanical and electrical equipment's grounding device is suitable.

Of course, the design of plastic extrusion machines produced by different manufacturers may be different, and the process of maintenance and inspection may be different. Hence, the above process for your reference is good.
