Maintenance for die casting machine requires a combination of daily, regular and long-term maintenance measures to ensure the proper operation and longevity of the equipment.
Maintenance for die casting machine–Routine maintenance
Cleaning and maintenance
Clean the surface and internal parts of the machine daily to remove dust, oil and other impurities to reduce the occurrence of failures.
Lubrication maintenance
Regularly check and add lubricating oil, especially to the sliding parts and hydraulic systems, to ensure that they are functioning properly.
Safety inspection
Check whether the safety guards, travel switch and emergency stop button are normal before starting the machine to ensure that there is no debris blocking the work area.
Maintenance for die casting machine–Regular maintenance
Level 1 Maintenance (every three months)
Clean the hydraulic tank filter.
Check the wear of cylinder piston rods, fasteners and seals, and replace damaged parts in a timely manner.
Check the nitrogen pressure to make sure it is within the normal range.
Level 2 Maintenance (every six months)
Check the connection between the main equipment and the oil pump to ensure that the oil pump is running normally and there is no abnormal noise.
Check the nitrogen pressure and the adjustment of the slide belt tensioner.
Level 3 Maintenance (Annual)
Thoroughly clean the tank and filters.
Check the quality of the hydraulic system oil and replace it with a new one if necessary.
Lubricate and retighten all moving pairs.
Maintenance for die casting machine–Long-term maintenance
Environment & Operational Practices
Keep the working environment clean, and no smoking, eating or drinking.
Ensure that the ventilation equipment is working properly and avoid the impact of high temperature and humidity on the equipment.
Operators need to be trained to be familiar with the use of equipment and safe operation specifications.
Equipment Inspection & Maintenance
Regularly inspect the electrical system to ensure that the electrical wiring is well connected to prevent leakage or short circuit.
Perform annual maintenance of the hydraulic system, including replacing the hydraulic oil and checking the health of the cooling system.
Preventative Maintenance
Develop a detailed maintenance plan, including service intervals, projects, and staffing schedules, to ensure that equipment is always in top condition.
Replace wearing parts such as seals, guide sleeves, etc. regularly to avoid equipment failure due to wear and tear.
Maintenance for die casting machine–System maintenance
Lubrication Maintenance
Regularly inspect and maintain sliding parts and lubricating oil circuits to ensure the normal operation of the lubrication system.
The lubricating oil needs to be changed regularly, e.g. every 500 hours and every 2000 hours.
Hydraulic System Maintenance
Check the pressure and flow of the hydraulic system to ensure that it is operating within the normal range.
Regularly check the quality of the hydraulic oil and the replacement cycle, and replenish or replace the hydraulic oil in time.
Electrical System Maintenance
Check whether the connections of the electrical wiring are loose or damaged to ensure the normal operation of the electrical components.
Regularly check the safety of electrical equipment to avoid production interruptions due to electrical problems.
Cooling System Maintenance
Clean cooling pipes, replace coolant, and check for leaks regularly to ensure proper operation of the cooling system.
Mould Maintenance
Clean the mold surface regularly, remove metal chips and lubricant residues, and check the mold for wear.
The cleaning of the mold waterway is also an important part of ensuring the performance of the mold.
Haichen’s training
Haichen’s development and adherence to strict safety operating procedures is key to ensuring the safety of equipment and personnel.
This includes regular training of operators to ensure they understand the proper use of equipment and what to do in case of an emergency.
