A Comprehensive Guide to Powder Equipment Maintenance: Secrets to Guaranteeing Optimum Performance and Extended Longevity

Powder equipment maintenance is a key part of ensuring that the equipment operates stably for a long period of time and maintains optimal performance. Here are some tips to keep the best performance of powder equipment:

First, Regular cleaning and maintenance

Daily cleaning: After each use, the residual powder on the surface and inside of the equipment should be cleaned up in time to prevent the powder from accumulating and leading to clogging or abrasion. Special attention should be paid to the metering device, sealing mechanism and other key parts of the cleaning to ensure its accuracy and sealing.

Deep Cleaning: In addition to daily cleaning, regular deep cleaning of the equipment is also required, including disassembly of removable parts for thorough cleaning to remove hard-to-reach dirt and residues.

Second, lubrication maintenance

Select the appropriate lubricant: According to the requirements of the equipment manual, select the appropriate lubricant or grease for the equipment. Different parts may require different types of lubricants.

Regular lubrication: regularly add the right amount of lubricant to the moving parts of the equipment, such as chains, bearings, etc., in order to reduce mechanical wear and ensure smooth operation of the equipment. Note that when adding lubricant, avoid dripping oil on the rotating belt to prevent slipping or belt damage.

Third, the function check and adjustment

Regular inspection: regularly check whether the functions of the equipment are normal, such as weighing accuracy, sealing tightness, conveyor belt stability. Problems found should be adjusted or repaired in time to avoid the expansion of the problem affecting production.

Calibration and Adjustment: For components that need calibration, such as measuring devices, they should be calibrated regularly to ensure their accuracy. At the same time, according to the production needs to adjust the parameters of the equipment to achieve the best production results.

Fourth, rust anti-corrosion

Rust treatment: for long-term contact with materials and easy to rust parts, need to do a good job of rust treatment. You can use antirust agent or paint for coating to prevent parts from rusting and affecting the performance of the equipment.

Anti-corrosion measures: Powder equipment used in humid or corrosive environments should take additional anti-corrosion measures, such as the use of corrosion-resistant materials to make parts or increase the anti-corrosion coating.

Fifth, Regular Overhaul and Replacement

Develop an overhaul plan: Develop and implement a regular comprehensive overhaul plan, including inspection of the electrical system, control system and mechanical structure. This helps to detect potential faults in advance and deal with them in time.

Replacement of worn parts: Parts that have been worn or damaged should be replaced in a timely manner. The use of original parts or substitutes that meet the requirements can ensure that the performance of the equipment is not affected.

Sixth, pay attention to the use of the environment

Keep dry and clean: Keep the working environment where the equipment is dry and clean, to avoid moisture, dust too much to affect the performance of the equipment.

Control temperature and humidity: for the temperature and humidity sensitive powder equipment, should control the temperature and humidity of the working environment within the appropriate range to ensure the normal operation of the equipment.

To sum up, the maintenance of powder equipment needs to start from cleaning and maintenance, lubrication and maintenance, function check and adjustment, rust and corrosion prevention, regular overhaul and replacement as well as paying attention to the use of the environment and other aspects. Only by doing these jobs comprehensively and carefully can we ensure that the powder equipment maintains the best performance and prolongs its service life.
