Do you know the operating procedures for aluminum profile presses?

Aluminum profiles are frequently used in our daily lives, and aluminum profile presses are also familiar to everyone. However, some people may encounter potential safety hazards due to improper operation, which can also reduce the lifespan of the machine. So what are the proper operating procedures for using aluminum profiles? Let's take a look together!

Equipment operators must be trained, assessed, and certified before operating the equipment. They must be familiar with the equipment's model, performance, structural features, and operating procedures, and should carefully read the instruction manual. A comprehensive inspection of the machine should be conducted at least monthly, checking for normal contact, secure connections, mechanical scratches, and any malfunctions in the oil tank. Before use, check that the oil tank is full and that all connections are secure to prevent leaks. Release any air through the vent valve and then close it.

Check if the hydraulic oil level meets the requirements, lubricate the slider and other parts, and begin the no-load test run according to the procedure. Replace the necessary springs and index plates according to the requirements of the test piece, remove debris from the pressure head stroke space and mold space; do not clean debris by hand. Use tweezers and tools when placing parts in and taking them out. When installing the pressure die, carefully examine the mold clearance, slider stroke, and eccentric position to ensure they meet the requirements. When two or more people are operating simultaneously, one person must be in charge of directing the operation. Sufficient lighting is required for nighttime work, and overloading and exceeding eccentric limits are strictly prohibited.

When calibrating or pressing workpieces, the workpiece should be placed in the center of the pressure head, and bias pressure is not allowed. If the control valve or safety valve malfunctions, the power should be turned off immediately, and work should not continue. Except for the throttle valve, other hydraulic valves must not be adjusted without authorization. If the pointer starts to retract, and the pressure continues but the pointer reading does not increase, it indicates that the test piece has been completely destroyed. The return valve should be slowly withdrawn to allow the oil in the tank to return to the storage tank. The pointer reading should be recorded, and then the pointer should be returned to zero. The tightness of each electromagnet should be checked frequently to prevent loosening that could alter the valve stroke. If serious oil leakage, excessive noise or vibration, or abnormal slider movement are found during equipment operation, the machine should be stopped immediately for inspection and troubleshooting to ensure proper equipment operation. The oil filter should be kept clear regularly, and an appropriate amount of foam plastic should be placed at the drain port to maintain oil cleanliness.
