What Is The Most Effective Way To Maintain CNC Machine Tools?

Oct 08, 2022

Maintenance of CNC machine tools daily ensures long-term steady and dependable functioning of CNC machine tools, which is required to extend the service life of CNC machine tools. As a result, proper usage of CNC machine tools and strict daily maintenance can prevent 80% of unexpected failures. Mechanical or electrical failure of the CNC machine tool will result in production disruption. Because restoring the equipment to normal operation takes time and money, such as maintenance, spare parts procurement, and services, it will result in a significant economic loss. Therefore, maintaining and repairing CNC machine tools while they are in use will increase productivity, eliminate unexpected failures, and add value.

 

Preventive maintenance of CNC machine tools is typically performed to extend the service life of components and the wear cycle of mechanical parts. Prevent mishaps so that the machine tool can work steadily for a long time, extending the machine tool's typical trouble-free time.

 

When it comes to performing daily maintenance on a CNC machine tool, CNC machine tool maintenance workers need to pay attention to the daily records, which include.

 

1. Start-up and shutdown time for a machine tool

 

2. When the machine tool is turned on, it is checked every day.

 

3. Machine tool failures occur when the status, time, operation, solutions, and so on.

 

4. Machines to add lubricant oil, cooling water, and other times and amounts

Additionally, the operator must be sure to write down the day's experience. Due to a previous failure, the operator may not notice minor defects when the machine tool is down. The panel button can appear pressed before the entire damage occurs, but the machine will not respond; simply press a few more times and the machine will work properly again. By recording these nuanced situations, future machine tool maintenance will be greatly simplified. Instead of a step-by-step examination, maintenance employees may be able to locate the key to the problem and resolve it quickly using the record.

 

There should also be a handover record along with the machine records. The successor can be reminded of what needs to be done, informed of what was not done, etc. In addition, you can record the previous operator's operation of the machine, such as what adjustments were made to the machine. This guarantees that an operator understands the current status of the machine, preventing mishaps or scrapping of workpieces due to ignorance of the machine's condition.

 

Daily machine tool maintenance consists of cleaning and maintaining machine tools, applying oil to exposed metal surfaces to avoid oxidation, etc. These are the basic requirements of daily maintenance.

 

The formulation of sound norms and regulations for routine maintenance is required for any factory, but it is also extremely simple. However, to ensure that each operator can follow these standards, each operator must be able to care for the machine tool to a certain degree of difficulty. Therefore, training and evaluation of operators is the basis for the implementation of these rules and regulations.
