Bending machines are the main equipment used for bending pipes and profiles. Bending machines are commonly used in bending processes, and there are many types of bending machines available in the current market.
Before using this equipment, it is necessary to receive training from professional personnel on operation, safety, and familiarity with equipment performance and operating methods before taking up the job. Before starting the machine, first check whether the circuit is connected properly, whether the connecting bolts are loose, and whether there is any oil leakage at the oil pipe joints. After the inspection is completed, run the motor, oil pump, etc. 1-2 times without any abnormal sounds, the oil cylinder is flexible, and the travel switch is not damaged or malfunctioning before putting it into use. Before bending, check if the template is firmly fixed. If the iron blocks used to fix the template are not welded firmly, the template will be under stress during bending, and loose iron blocks may pop out and cause injury.
During work, the operator who starts the machine must stand in a safe place, and the operators on both sides must be outside the top bending and rebound stroke of the profile. No one can approach during the top bending. The welding seam of the profile during top bending must be on the inner side of the bending arc, except in special circumstances. To prevent the profile from breaking and injuring people, any operator who moves the iron block used for top bending must gesture to inform the operators on both sides. Operators on both sides are strictly prohibited from moving the profile, otherwise it is easy to hurt their hands.
Precautions and maintenance: When using the equipment, the operator should pay attention to the forward and backward movement of the main and auxiliary oil cylinders, and cannot exceed the limit of use. If the stroke is not enough, iron blocks must be added directly to the oil cylinders and profiles. It is necessary to work according to the performance of the equipment and not overload. When adjusting the pressure, be careful not to exceed the limit. Based on the top moving profile, if it is a large material that needs to be temporarily raised, it should be immediately adjusted back after use.
When starting up, concentrate on observing whether there are any abnormalities in the components of the equipment under load, whether the sound of each part is normal, whether the pressure gauge pointer is flexible, and strictly prevent any abnormal phenomena in the equipment. Also, observe at any time whether the top bending profile is deformed, cracked, depressed or other unqualified phenomena.
After each work, vulnerable parts should be inspected, the plunger of the oil cylinder and the hydraulic station should be kept clean, and the rotating joints of the equipment should be regularly lubricated for maintenance without oil shortage or dry wear. After each work, the oil cylinder plunger should be retracted to prevent damage to the oil cylinder rod.
The above is the operating procedures and precautions for the bending machine collected and summarized by the editor of Zhijiu Pipe Bending Manufacturer. I hope it can be helpful to you.
