The use of the bending machine can be summarized in the following steps:
1. Preliminary preparation:
- Before using the bending machine, check whether the power supply is smooth,
whether the air pressure is sufficient, whether the hydraulic pressure is
sufficient, whether the machine is clean, and whether there are obstacles in the
slide part.
- Turn on the power switch of the machine, start the oil pump, and correct
the origin of L axis, D axis, CC axis and Z axis to complete the starting
process.
2. Mold installation and debugging:
- After selecting the mold, set the gear switch of the machine to the "cut"
position.
- Install the base, lower die and upper die, and then put the switch of the
machine in the inching or single acting position.
- Foot the lift switch, shake the lift handle or knob to combine the upper
and lower molds and press the zero point of the D-axis, lock the lower molds to
complete the mold loading process.
3. Program arrangement and trial:
- Read the drawing, understand the bending order and bending size, and start
to program the bending machine. Programming usually has two input methods: Angle
input and depth input.
- Enter the computer into the memory state, enter the bending size L, D
value, Z value, speed, time, times and other values, and check the program is
correct.
- Put the computer into operation and modify the program by test folding with
scrap materials until the Angle and size are adjusted to the optimal state.
- Test the product, after the inspection is correct, mass production can be
carried out.
4. Bending operation:
- During the bending process, if the bending speed needs to be increased, the
gear switch can be adjusted to single action or continuous action, but for
safety reasons, it is generally recommended to use the single action state.
- When bending longer parts, if the middle Angle is too large, the middle
Angle can be changed by adjusting the CC axis to make it consistent with the
left and right angles.
- Pay attention to follow the center bending principle to ensure bending
machining accuracy.
5. Rest and downtime:
- During short breaks, in order to save electricity and time, you can only
turn off the oil pump and keep the power on.
- When finishing the product or stopping after work, the lower die should be
placed on the lowest level first, and then the oil pump and power supply should
be turned off. If the product is finished, it is necessary to remove the mold
and put it back on the mold rack, and restore the operation panel.
6. Safety and Maintenance:
- It is strictly prohibited to operate the bending machine in violation of
regulations to prevent injury to the person and the equipment mold.
- Usually pay attention to the cleaning and maintenance of the machine, and
develop a good habit of caring for the equipment and molds.
Following the above steps and precautions can ensure the safe and efficient
use of the bending machine.
