In the field of metal processing, the track cutting straightening machine is gradually becoming a key equipment for many enterprises to reduce costs and improve efficiency.
- Enhanced material utilization: In traditional processing, the bending or deformation of materials often leads to cutting deviations, resulting in material waste. Thanks to its precise straightening function, the track cutting straightening machine can straighten metal materials before cutting, making the cutting more accurate. This reduces the scrap generated due to non - straight materials, significantly improving material utilization and directly lowering material costs.
- Improved production efficiency: Generally, the track cutting straightening machine has a high degree of automation and can quickly complete the straightening and cutting of metal materials. The automated processes of feeding, straightening, cutting, and discharging reduce manual intervention, shorten the processing time for single pieces. It can also operate continuously for 24 hours and seamlessly integrate with automated production lines, effectively releasing production capacity potential. As a result, more qualified products can be produced per unit time, spreading the costs of equipment depreciation and labor over each product.
- Reduced labor costs: Its automation feature simplifies operations. There is no need for a large number of skilled workers to perform cumbersome straightening and cutting operations. One person can manage multiple devices, thus reducing the demand for labor and lowering labor costs.
- Lower equipment wear and maintenance costs: The advanced track cutting straightening machine is reasonably designed. Key components such as straightening rollers and cutting tools are made of high - quality materials and advanced manufacturing processes, featuring strong wear - resistance and long service life. Moreover, the machine runs smoothly, exerting less impact on other related equipment, which can reduce the overall equipment wear and lower maintenance and replacement costs.
- Pre - operation preparation
- Equipment inspection: Check whether the mechanical parts of the straightening machine are loose or worn, whether the transmission system is well - lubricated, and whether the electrical system is normal. Also, ensure that the oil level and pressure of the hydraulic system are within the specified range. Make sure the track is free of debris and deformation, and the cutting tools are firmly installed and properly sharpened.
- Material preparation: Clean the oil stains, impurities, etc. on the surface of the metal materials to be processed to ensure that the materials meet the equipment's processing specifications. Arrange the materials into appropriate lengths and shapes according to the processing requirements to avoid the impact of excessive length or shortness on the straightening and cutting effects.
- Personal protection: Operators must wear personal protective equipment such as safety helmets, protective glasses, earplugs, and gloves.
- Precautions during operation
- Proper feeding: Place the materials steadily on the feeding device, ensuring that the materials are aligned with the centerline of the track to prevent the materials from deviating or jamming during the feeding process.
- Parameter setting: Based on the material properties such as material type, thickness, and hardness, as well as the processing requirements, accurately set parameters such as straightening pressure, cutting speed, and cutting length on the operation interface. Before starting the processing, a trial cut can be carried out to check whether the parameters are reasonable, and adjust them in a timely manner if there are any problems.
- Equipment monitoring: During the operation of the equipment, closely monitor its operating status and observe the straightening and cutting of the materials. If abnormal sounds, vibrations, smoking, etc. are found, immediately press the emergency stop button, stop the machine for inspection, and resume operation after troubleshooting.
- Post - operation maintenance
- Equipment cleaning: Promptly clean the metal debris, dust, and oil stains on the equipment to keep it clean. Check and clean key components such as cutting tools and straightening rollers. If there is any wear, replace them in a timely manner to ensure the performance of the equipment.
- Power off: Turn off the power switch of the equipment to cut off the power supply, saving energy and ensuring safety.
- Regular maintenance: According to the recommendations of the equipment manufacturer, regularly conduct comprehensive maintenance on the track cutting straightening machine, including replacing lubricating oil, calibrating sensors, checking electrical circuits, etc., to extend the service life of the equipment.
