As an important part of the bending machine, the correct maintenance of the Bending Machine Mold is essential to extend its service life.
First of all, before use, make sure that the mold surface is clean and free of foreign matter. Carefully inspect the mold to check for defects such as cracks and wear. If any problems are found, they should be repaired or replaced in time to avoid more serious damage during use.
During use, pay attention to choosing appropriate processing parameters. Avoid excessive pressure or unreasonable bending operations, which will cause premature wear or even damage to the mold. At the same time, the bending speed and pressure should be reasonably adjusted according to factors such as the material and thickness of the processed plate. For thicker or harder plates, the bending speed should be appropriately reduced and the pressure should be increased, but it should also be ensured that it is within the tolerance range of the mold.
After each use, timely cleaning of the mold is an essential maintenance step. Use a clean soft cloth or brush to remove oil stains, metal chips and other debris from the mold surface. Oil stains will corrode the mold surface, reduce its accuracy and service life; metal chips may scratch the mold or workpiece the next time it is used.
It is also very important to lubricate the mold regularly. Choose a suitable lubricant and apply it to the key parts of the mold, such as the guide surface, contact surface, etc. Good lubrication can reduce friction, reduce wear, and make the mold smoother at work. But be careful not to use too much lubricant to avoid contaminating the workpiece or equipment.
In addition, pay attention to environmental conditions when storing the mold. The mold should be stored in a dry and well-ventilated place to avoid rusting of the mold due to a humid environment. Anti-rust oil can be applied to the surface of the mold to prevent rust. At the same time, to avoid collision and extrusion of the mold, it is best to place it on a special mold rack and store it in categories for easy management and access.
In addition, regular professional inspection and maintenance of the mold is also the key to extending its service life. Professional technicians can be asked to conduct a comprehensive inspection of the mold, identify potential problems in time, and repair or adjust them.
In short, the correct maintenance of the Bending Machine Mold requires inspection before use, reasonable operation during use, cleaning and lubrication after use, storage and regular maintenance. Only in this way can the service life of the mold be effectively extended, production costs can be reduced, and production efficiency can be improved.
